Understanding Taxes in Portugal
Being resident in Portugal normally means being tax resident here as well, especially if you spend more than 183 days per year here. Residency and tax residency are both complicated issues, and there are exceptions, both most people living in Portugal will be tax resident here. Most visas like the D7 or D2 require you to be in Portugal for the majority of the year anyway, making you tax resident here as well.
Many expats living in Portugal will also have signed up to the NHR (non-habitual residency) regime, the 10-year tax program that gives newcomers to Portugal different tax rates on certain types of income. If you only have one form of income, regardless of whether you qualify for NHR or not, your taxes may be reasonably straightforward (i.e. you have a pension and, under NHR, you pay a 10% flatrate on it). If you do some freelance work as well, for example, that may not qualify for NHR and would be calculated differently. If you have rental income from a property abroad, that may qualify for NHR and be eligible to be taxed in the country the property is in and not in Portugal.
Basically, taxes in Portugal, particularly for expats who often have several forms of income, can be complicated to calculate, which is why you should always enlist the services of an accountant.
Portuguese income tax bands
Like many European countries, Portugal has a progressive tax system. This simply means that the rates increase the more income you earn.
For example: if you earn €7,000 per year you’ll be taxed at 14.5% whereas if you earn €10,000 per year you’ll be taxed at 14.5% on the first €7,112 and 23% on everything between €7,112 and €10,000.
Taxable incomeIncome tax rate
up to €7,11214.5%
For incomes above €80,000, an additional solidarity tax applies: 2.5% on income between €80,000 and €250,000 and 5% on income above €500,000.
Similar to a tax-free personal allowance, there is a deduction allowance. In 2021, this was €4,104.
Social Security
If you’re working, either employed or self-employed, you’ll also have social security to pay. Employees pay 11% (and their employer pays 23.75%) while those who are self-employed pay 21.4%.
The NHR tax regime
Many newcomers to Portugal will be eligible for Portugal’s NHR or non-habitual residence regime. This is a different group of tax rates, which are often lower than normal Portuguese tax rates and, in some cases, allow you to pay some taxes abroad rather than in Portugal. In some cases, it’s possible to avoid paying taxes altogether (in the case of some forms of income like dividends and royalties).
Anyone who’s resident in Portugal can sign up for NHR, as long as they haven’t been on the scheme before or been resident in Portugal in the previous five years. The “tax holiday” lasts for ten years after which you move onto standard Portuguese tax rates.
Pensioners, for example, pay a flatrate of 10% tax on their pensions, as of March 2020. Freelancers, depending on whether their work is considered “high value,” can qualify for a 20% flatrate. However, not every form of income qualifies for NHR. If you’re a freelancer, for example, your profession may not be considered high value and capital gains on shares do not qualify for NHR.
It’s also possible that NHR is not actually the best option for you taxwise and you may be better off under normal tax rates instead. This is where a good accountant comes in useful.
A more in-depth article about NHR can be found here
Capital Gains Tax
Another tax that you’ll need to consider, particularly if you own property here, is capital gains.
When you sell your property in Portugal, you pay tax (or capital gains) on the profits. The rate at which you’ll pay depends on a number of factors, but the first is whether you’re resident in Portugal or a non-resident.
• Non-residents pay capital gains on 100% of the gain at a flat rate of 28% or 25% if you’re buying and selling the property through a company.
• Residents pay capital gains on 50% of the gain at the progressive tax rates listed above: 14.5% up to 48%. Because you only pay capital gains tax on 50% of the gain, this means the top rate is effectively 24% and not 48%.
For both residents and non-residents, you are able to offset some costs and reduce the amount of capital gains you have to pay.
Example costs include:
• Improvements made in the previous 12 years (receipts needed).
• Inflation
Both residents and non-residents from the EU have the option of avoiding capital gains altogether (or reducing it) by reinvesting the proceeds into another property in Portugal or the EU. This needs to either be done within three years of selling the property or two years before.
Those over 65 also have the option of reinvesting the proceeds into a pension fund or life assurance plan, but the deadline for this is much shorter: within six months following the sale.
Taxes for non-residents
If you’re not a resident in Portugal, typically only income that’s earned in Portugal will be eligible for Portuguese taxes. Example income would include rental income from a property in Portugal or the sale of a property here.
Submitting tax returns
The Portuguese tax year runs from January 1st until December 31st. Tax returns are submitted between April 1st and June 30th in the calendar year following the previous tax year.

1. Hi.
We are hoping to emigrate to PT from the UK and use a combination of my work pension and rental income from our UK home as our primary source of income. Would I need to apply for NHR to prevent this being taxed in PT as it will already have been taxed in the UK?
• Hi Rob,
NHR could be a good option for those income types. This article lays out some of the different types and how they might theoretically be treated: https://www.portugalist.com/non-habitual-tax-regime/
You can apply for NHR once you have become resident in Portugal.
2. Hi James, thanks for your page and the large amount of info in it however im wondering if you are self employed does it come under income tax aswell?
• Hi Gavin,
Something I need to do a separate article on. The figures above will be helpful. Social security is slightly different, but all of the above should give you a good idea. Speaking to an accountant is definitely recommended, though.
3. Hi James, I sent a question a few months ago and I cannot find the thread unfortunately. We have NHR status and have a business in the UK which we still run at the moment. I need guidance on the taxes I have to pay to PT (if any) on the income of the UK business and property we have in the UK. Can you give me a contact please so I can discuss this.
Thank you
4. Hello,
Thank you, it’s really useful!
I heard that if your year income is less than 12 500€ you are free to pay taxes, is it correct?
Could you please clarify situation if I’m self-employed person who makes, for example, 20 000€ Income during the year how much taxes should I pay with social security?
All the Best,

Grocery prices could climb, even as food service comes back online
A surprising thing happened during the COVID-19 lockdown: grocery stores in Canada didn’t jack prices in comparison to their American counterparts.
What’s more, the sales of certain items, such as beef, held very strong — much stronger than many anticipated. That demand helped offset the loss of sit-down dining demand.
But as Kevin Grier of Kevin Grier Market Analysis and Consulting explains in the interview below, increasing commodity costs could push grocery inflation higher in the year ahead.
Grier says that initial cost increases in American grocery stores were largely driven by opportunity. Panic buying and closed restaurants pushed more sales to grocers, and they took advantage.
Here in Canada, he says, our food inflation rate actually went down, despite some cost increases, likely because of strong competition between retail properties.
Looking ahead, there are two major factors at play that will influence the level of grocery cost increases. One is competition between stores, which has held strong, and the other is commodity pricing — and those prices are on the rise. Those rising prices will work their way through retail too, he says. The smart money is on inflation.
What about food service coming back online? Grocers will have to consider that, as consumers will have that option back, Grier adds.

Hoops striker Griffiths blamed himself for the 2-1 defeat by Ajax at Parkhead on Thursday night which left the Scottish champions with two points from five Group A games.
They are out of the competition, with the final fixture against Fenerbahce in Istanbul next month a dead rubber as far as Ronny Deila's side are concerned.
A disappointed Griffiths said afterwards: "Ultimately it is me who has cost us a place in Europe. It is down to me and my finishing."
Lustig, however, believes the Scotland international was ‘a little bit harsh on himself’ and is determined to get back to winning ways in the Ladbrokes Premiership when they make the journey to the Highlands.
The Sweden defender said: "A lot of players can take the blame for this campaign.
"Leigh played a good game and maybe he was being a little bit harsh on himself.
"The good thing in football is there are always more games and you need to recharge your batteries and focus on Sunday.
"We always want to play in Europe so it was a sore one but we need to focus on Inverness."
Assistant manager John Collins is looking forward to taking on Caley boss and good friend John Hughes as he hopes Celtic make an instant recovery from their European woes.
The former Hoops midfielder said: "I'm looking forward to the game. It's always a challenge against my old mate Yogi (Hughes).
"They never make it easy for you, it's never an easy place to go.
"It's their cup final. Wherever we go it's our opponents' cup final. They've got nothing to lose and everything to gain. It's the opposite for us.
"We'll go there and do what we've been doing domestically, which is putting in good performances and scoring goals."
Celtic will assess midfielder Kris Commons, who has been out recently with a combination of a hamstring injury and illness, but Charlie Mulgrew is out with a recurrence of a thigh injury.

Tinted Sunblock or BB Cream or Foundation – What Do I Need?
The answer lies in the names of the products.
A tinted sunblock is designed to protect your skin from the sun. The tint is usually added to balance out the white cast. As a result of this combination, it also offers light coverage and a smoothing effect on your skin.
A BB cream is meant to offer very light coverage, not much more than what you would get from a tinted sunscreen. It is also supposed to offer multiple benefits depending on the actives used in the formula. However, like with most “do everything” formulas, it isn’t very good at any one thing.
A foundation is meant for make-up and the primary function is coverage. You will also find some foundations with SPF in the market, along with a few other benefits, but you are better off choosing products designed to deliver what you need. Choose a foundation based on the look you want, not for the SPF or other actives in it.
BB cream and foundation are nice to have products. Sunblock is a must-have if you want to protect your skin from sun damage.
To understand layering better, read our blogs on what comes first, foundation or sunscreen, and the order in which to apply the products in your AM routine!

Completely positive master equation for arbitrary driving and small level spacing
title={Completely positive master equation for arbitrary driving and small level spacing},
author={Evgeny Mozgunov and Daniel A. Lidar},
Markovian master equations are a ubiquitous tool in the study of open quantum systems, but deriving them from first principles involves a series of compromises. On the one hand, the Redfield equation is valid for fast environments (whose correlation function decays much faster than the system relaxation time) regardless of the relative strength of the coupling to the system Hamiltonian, but is notoriously non-completely-positive. On the other hand, the Davies equation preserves complete…

north korea
This July 28, 2017, file photo released by KCNA shows an intercontinental ballistic missile being launched at an undisclosed location in North Korea.STR/AFP / Getty Images
U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday, in an effort to outdo the bombast usually employed by Pyongyang, promised a reprisal of "fire and fury like the world has never seen" if North Korea makes good on threats to attack the United States, after two successful intercontinental ballistic missile tests by the isolated country.
North Korea, in turn, warned it is "carefully examining" plans to attack the U.S. territory of Guam, site of an American military base, with "enveloping fire."
Earlier in the day, Pyongyang had said it was ready to give Washington a "severe lesson."
But even as new rage infected an already dangerous security situation, Ottawa staged its own entry into the international community's fraught dealings with North Korea, dispatching a high-level delegation to Pyongyang to discuss the case of a Toronto pastor imprisoned there.
Daniel Jean, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's national-security and intelligence adviser, led a visit to Pyongyang to discuss pastor Hyeon Soo Lim, a senior government official told The Globe and Mail. Canada has sought the release of the pastor, but the delegation will also raise "other issues of regional concern," the official said. The news of Mr. Jean's visit was first reported by North Korean state-run media.
"If there is a Canadian delegation there, for whatever purpose, we are hopeful that Reverend Lim's release will be discussed," said Lisa Pak, a spokeswoman for Mr. Lim's family. "I don't think I can answer decisively that everything will work out but I can tell you that we are certainly always, always, always hoping that it will."
The security threat from North Korea has "entered a new stage," Japan's Defence Ministry warned on Tuesday, in a report that suggested the country is either nearing, or has already reached, the ability to assemble a nuclear-tipped missile.
"It is possible that North Korea has already achieved the miniaturization of nuclear weapons and has acquired nuclear warheads," the ministry said in an annual Defence White Paper.
A new U.S. analysis was more blunt: The intelligence community "assesses North Korea has produced nuclear weapons for ballistic missile delivery, to include delivery by ICBM-class missiles," according to a confidential defence analysis reported by The Washington Post.
But U.S. intelligence officials told Reuters that while North Korea has accelerated its efforts to design an ICBM, a miniaturized nuclear warhead, and a nosecone robust enough to survive re-entry through the Earth's atmosphere, there is no reliable evidence it has mastered all three, much less tested and combined them into a weapon capable of hitting targets in the United States.
"There's a lot that we don't know," about the North Korean nuclear weapons program, including whether Pyongyang has developed "the guidance and control system, guidance and stability control, to move a rocket that distance without it breaking up," U.S. Air Force General Paul Selva, the vice-chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told the Air Force Association's Mitchell Institute last Thursday.
The United Nations Security Council unanimously imposed new sanctions on North Korea on Saturday over its continued missile tests that could slash the reclusive country's $3-billion (U.S.) annual export revenue by a third.
The Prime Minister's Office confirmed that Ottawa has sent a delegation to Pyongyang to discuss Mr. Lim's case, but would not provide any specifics about the visit.
"Pastor Lim's health and well-being remain of utmost importance to the Government of Canada as we continue to engage on this case," PMO spokesman Cameron Ahmad said in an e-mail.
"As this is an active case, we will not provide further comment at this time."
North Korea has said its laws dictate that any clemency decision come from its supreme leader, Chairman Kim Jong-un, and "that means that if it's going to happen, there's going to have to be some communication between the chairman's counterpart in Canada – who, of course, happens to be the prime minister," said a person with knowledge of the North Korean demands, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the situation.
Still, North Korea's state news agency described Mr. Jean as "special envoy of the Canadian Prime Minister."
North Korea has also sought normalization of diplomatic relations, including accreditation of its ambassador to Canada, but its "No. 1" condition is "the respect element" of an appeal from Mr. Trudeau, the person said. "Everything beyond that is negotiable."
In December, 2015, he was sentenced to hard labour for life by North Korea's Supreme Court for what it says was an attempt to overthrow the regime.
Mr. Lim said in a January, 2016, interview with CNN that he spends eight hours a day digging holes at a labour camp where he has not seen any other prisoners. His church has said he has a "very serious health problem, very high blood pressure."
"I hope I can go home some day," he told CNN. "Nobody knows if I will ever go home, but that is my hope. I miss my family. I am longing to see them again, and my congregation."
Pyongyang said it was "carefully examining" a plan to strike Guam, an island of around 162,000 in the western Pacific and the site of a U.S. military base that hosts a submarine squadron, an airbase and a Coast Guard group.
With a report from Laura Stone in Ottawa, and Reuters

Psst, Keep this to yourself: How to Expose Massive Conspiracies
Equation shows that large-scale conspiracies would quickly reveal themselves. But maybe that’s just What They Want You To Think! Or not. Perhaps.
The bigger the conspiracy, the more likely it is that it’s not true.
That sounds like a classic double bluff to me, maaaan.
Dr Grimes, a physicist working in cancer research, is also a science writer and broadcaster. His profile means that he receives many communications from people who believe in science-related conspiracies. Those messages prompted him to look at whether large-scale collusions were actually tenable.
However, the equation required a realistic estimation of the chances of any one individual revealing a conspiracy. Three genuine conspiracies were used to provide this – including the NSA Prism project revealed by Edward Snowden.
In each case, the number of conspirators and the time before the conspiracy wsecret, massive conspiracyas revealed were over-estimated to ensure that the odds of a leak happening were a ‘best case scenario’ for the conspirators – around a four in one million chance of deliberate or accidental exposure.
Dr Grimes then looked at four alleged plots, estimating the maximum number of people required to be in on the conspiracy, in order to see how viable these conspiracies could be. These include: the theory that the US moon landings were a hoax (411,000 people); that Climate Change is a fraud (405,000 people); that unsafe vaccinations are being covered up (22,000 people assuming that only the World Health Organisation and the US Centers for Disease Control are conspirators and that others involved in advocating, producing, distributing and using vaccines are dupes. 736,000 people if, as would be more likely, pharmaceutical companies were included); that the cure for Cancer is being supressed by the world’s leading pharmaceutical firms (714,000 people).
Using the equation, Dr Grimes calculated that hoax moon landings would have been revealed in 3 years 8 months, a climate change fraud in 3 years 9 months, a vaccination conspiracy in 3 years 2 months, and a suppressed Cancer cure in 3 years 3 months. In simple terms, any one of the four conspiracies would have been exposed long before now.

Evolutionary History Of Life
The Earth is about 4.54 billion years old. The earliest undisputed evidence of life on Earth dates from at least 3.5 billion years ago, during the Eoarchean Era after a geological crust started to solidify following the earlier molten Hadean Eon. Microbial mat fossils have been found in 3.48 billion-year-old sandstone in Western Australia. Other early physical evidence of a biogenic substance is graphite in 3.7 billion-year-old metasedimentary rocks discovered in Western Greenland as well as “remains of biotic life” found in 4.1 billion-year-old rocks in Western Australia. Commenting on the Australian findings, Stephen Blair Hedges wrote, “If life arose relatively quickly on Earth, then it could be common in the universe.” In July 2016, scientists reported identifying a set of 355 genes from the last universal common ancestor of all organisms living on Earth.
More than 99 percent of all species, amounting to over five billion species, that ever lived on Earth are estimated to be extinct. Estimates on the number of Earth’s current species range from 10 million to 14 million, of which about 1.9 million are estimated to have been named and 1.6 million documented in a central database to date, leaving at least 80 percent not yet described.
Typological Essentialist And Transformationist Thinking
Misunderstandings about how variation arises are problematic, but a common failure to recognize that it plays a role at all represents an even a deeper concern. Since Darwin , evolutionary theory has been based strongly on population thinking that emphasizes differences among individuals. By contrast, many naïve interpretations of evolution remain rooted in the typological or essentialist thinking that has existed since the ancient Greeks . In this case, species are conceived of as exhibiting a single type or a common essence, with variation among individuals representing anomalous and largely unimportant deviations from the type or essence. As Shtulman notes, human beings tend to essentialize biological kinds and essentialism is incompatible with natural selection. As with many other conceptual biases, the tendency to essentialize seems to arise early in childhood and remains the default for most individuals .

What Is The Main Goal Of Evolution
Evolution describes changes to the inherited traits of organisms across generations. Evolutionary change is not directed towards a goal, nor is it solely dependent on natural selection to shape its path. Ecology, as with any biological discipline, is rooted in evolutionary concepts and best understood in its terms.

Recombinant DNA
Biotechnology in the modern sense of genetic engineering began in the 1970s, with the invention of recombinant DNA techniques.Restriction enzymes were discovered and characterized in the late 1960s, following on the heels of the isolation, then duplication, then synthesis of viral genes. Beginning with the lab of Paul Berg in 1972 , molecular biologists put these pieces together to produce the first transgenic organisms. Soon after, others began using plasmidvectors and adding genes for antibiotic resistance, greatly increasing the reach of the recombinant techniques.

The Increase Of Genetic Complexity Follows Moore’s Law
Biological evolution is traditionally studied in two aspects. First, paleontological records show astonishing changes in the composition of major taxonomic groups of animals and plants deposited in sedimentary rocks of various ages . Aquatic life forms give rise to the first terrestrial plants and animals, amphibians lead to reptiles including dinosaurs, ferns lead to gymnosperms, and then to flowering plants. Extinction of most dinosaurs is followed by the spread of mammals and flying descendants of dinosaurs called birds. Second, Darwin’s theory augmented with statistical genetics demonstrated that heritable changes may accumulate in populations and result in replacement of gene variants . This process drives microevolution, which helps species to improve their functions and adjust to changing environments. But despite the importance of these two aspects of evolution, they do not capture the core of the macroevolutionary process, which is the increase of functional complexity of organisms.
Functionality of genome regions can be inferred from their conservation in evolution. Conserved sequences include the majority of genes and regulatory modules such as promoters and enhancers . Regulatory regions are less stable than genes, and thus, they are not always highly conserved in evolution. An additional criterion of functionality is the absence of transposable repeats . Based on our estimate, ca. 15% of mammalian genome is transposon-free, and therefore, likely functional .
Visible Evidence Of Ongoing Evolution: Darwins Finches
From 1831 to 1836, Darwin traveled around the world, observing animals on different continents and islands. On the Galapagos Islands, Darwin observed several species of finches with unique beak shapes. He observed these finches closely resembled another finch species on the mainland of South America and that the group of species in the Galápagos formed a graded series of beak sizes and shapes, with very small differences between the most similar. Darwin imagined that the island species might be all species modified from one original mainland species. In 1860, he wrote, seeing this gradation and diversity of structure in one small, intimately related group of birds, one might really fancy that from an original paucity of birds in this archipelago, one species had been taken and modified for different ends.
Darwins Finches: Darwin observed that beak shape varies among finch species. He postulated that the beak of an ancestral species had adapted over time to equip the finches to acquire different food sources. This illustration shows the beak shapes for four species of ground finch: 1. Geospiza magnirostris , 2. G. fortis , 3. G. parvula , and 4. Certhidea olivacea .

What Is The Evidence For Evolution
What is the Evidence for Evolution?
The Theory of Evolution is one of the best-substantiated theories in the history of science. It is supported by evidence from a wide variety of scientific disciplines, including genetics, which shows that different species have similarities in their DNA.
There is also evidence supporting the Theory of Evolution in paleontology and geology. This is through the fossil record, which shows how that species that existed in the past are different from those present today, according to Bruce S. Lieberman and Roger L. Kaesler in “Prehistoric Life: Evolution and the Fossil Record” .
There is also evidence for Darwin’s theory found in developmental biology. It has been discovered that species that seem very different as adults pass through similar stages of embryological development, suggesting a shared evolutionary past, according to the open-access textbook “Concepts of Biology.”

Evolution Of Evolvability: Dedicated Mechanisms For Evolution
All organisms possess a certain degree of evolvability, i.e., the ability to evolve. At the most basic level, evolvability stems from the theoretical impossibility of error-free replication. Genomic variation in evolving organisms is created by a combination of intrinsic replication errors, recombination and mutations induced external agents . An intriguing, fundamental question in evolutionary biology is whether or not evolvability itself can evolve under selection, or put another way, whether there are dedicated mechanisms of evolution . The prevailing wisdom among biologists seems to be that evolvability is not selectable but is simply maintained at a sufficient level by inevitable errors at all levels of biological information processing. Under this view, selection is always directed at minimization of the error rate but the ability to attain perfection is limited by genetic drift resulting in sufficient evolvability . Evolutionary biologists are usually suspicious of the evolution of evolvability, generally under the old adage, evolution has no forecast.
In parallel with experimental studies, several theoretical models have been developed that characterize evolvability as a selectable trait in fluctuating environments . Thus, on the whole, and general theoretical doubts notwithstanding, evolution of evolvability appears to be an intrinsic and fundamental, if still poorly understood, aspect of the evolutionary process.

. Subsequently, one may also ask, what are the 4 principles of evolution?
There are four principles at work in evolutionvariation, inheritance, selection and time. These are considered the components of the evolutionary mechanism of natural selection.
Additionally, what are the 3 types of evolution? Types of Evolution. Evolution over time can follow several different patterns. Factors such as environment and predation pressures can have different effects on the ways in which species exposed to them evolve. shows the three main types of evolution: divergent, convergent, and parallel evolution.

Evolution As An Emergent Property Of Life
A key part of any definition of life is that living organisms reproduce. Lets now add a couple of observations:
• The process of reproduction, while mostly accurate, is imperfect. When cells divide, they have to replicate their DNA. Although DNA replication is highly accurate, it still makes about 1 mistake in 10 million nucleotides. Over generations, the population will contain lots of heritable variation.
• The population of a given type of organism will tend to grow exponentially, but will reach a limit, where the individuals have to compete with each other for the limiting resource

The Dynamic Gene Universe
For decades microbiologists knew that bacteria sometimes exchange genes . Moreover, the phenomena of transformation, acquisition of new traits via import of DNA from the environment and integration of the imported molecules into the bacterial genome, and transduction, transfer of genetic markers by bacteriophages, have been studied in considerable detail. In fact, transformation was the basis of the seminal 1944 experiments of Avery and colleagues which demonstrated that the genetic material of bacteria consisted of DNA . In addition, microbiologists realized that such HGT could exert well-defined, major biological effects such as conferring pathogenicity or antibiotic resistance on the recipients of horizontally transferred genes. However, all this knowledge notwithstanding, in the pregenomic era, HGT was considered a highly specialized genetic pathway rather than the mainstream of microbial evolution.

Evolution As A Scientific Theory
Evolution & natural selection | Heredity & Evolution | Biology | Khan Academy
In non-scientific contexts, theory usually means something like a guess . But in its scientific sense, a theory is a tested and well-confirmed explanation for a set of observations. The observations explained by the theory of evolution come primarily from the fossil record, comparative morphology, biogeography, and now most importantly, genetics. Evolution does not attempt to give a scientific explanation for the origin of life, but only for the development and diversification of lifeforms after the first life began.
The theory of evolution states that all the lifeforms on earth share a common ancestor as a result of variation and selection over a very long time . Variation means that offspring are not exact replicas of their parents, and selection occurs when only some of those offspring go on to produce more of their own offspring. Common ancestry does not mean the species we find today have evolved from each otherdogs did not evolve from cats, and humans did not evolve from chimpanzees. Instead, if you go back far enough in the ancestral tree of any two organisms, common ancestry predicts that youll come to a grandparent of which both current organisms are descendants. For humans and our closest relatives the chimpanzees, you have to go back around 300,000 generations to find that common ancestor . What did that process look like?

The Study Of Structure
Evolution Adaptation And Model Organisms
Biological evolution is the change in inherited traits over successive generations in populations of organisms. Adaptation is a key evolutionary process in which variation in the fitness of traits and species are adjusted by natural selection to become better suited for survival in specific ecological habitats. The environment acts to promote evolution through changes in development. Therefore, determining how developmental changes are mediated is critical for understanding the mechanisms of evolution.
Biological processes are often studied in model organisms. A model organism is a species that is studied extensively in the laboratory with anticipation that the results can be applied to biological phenomena in general. Cave animals can serve as excellent models to study the relationships between the environment, evolution, adaptation, and development. Troglomorphic traits, including elongated appendages, lowered metabolism, specialized sensory systems, and loss of eyes and pigmentation have evolved as a response to the effects of perpetual darkness. In this article, we describe the characid fish Astyanax mexicanus, as a vertebrate model system for studying the developmental basis of evolution and adaptation to the cave environment.

Which is important for transcription?
CAAT is a promoter sequence that lies between -70 and -80 base pairs and is essential for transcription initiation. The sequence is GGT/ACAATCT. The promoter is a DNA segment that serves to initiate transcription of a particular gene.
What is transcription explain its mechanism?
Transcription is the process in which a gene’s DNA sequence is copied (transcribed) to make an RNA molecule. RNA polymerase is the main transcription enzyme. Transcription begins when RNA polymerase binds to a promoter sequence near the beginning of a gene (directly or through helper proteins).
Where does DNA transcription occur?
The process of Transcription takes place in the cytoplasm in prokaryotes and in nucleus in eukaryotes. It uses DNA as a template to make an RNA (mRNA) molecule. During transcription, a strand of mRNA is made that is complementary to a strand of DNA . Figure 1 shows how this occurs.
What is the purpose of transcription?
The goal of transcription is to make a RNA copy of a gene’s DNA sequence. For a protein-coding gene, the RNA copy, or transcript, carries the information needed to build a polypeptide (protein or protein subunit). Eukaryotic transcripts need to go through some processing steps before translation into proteins.
What is transcription for Class 11?
Transcription is the process in which a DNA sequence is transcribed into an RNA molecule with the help of enzyme RNA polymerase. One of the DNA strands acts as a template to make a complementary RNA strand.
What is the difference between transcription and DNA?
Transcription and translation are two steps of the gene expression process.
• Both processes involve mRNA.
• Also,both processes are equally essential in order to produce proteins in living organisms.
• Besides,both need a template in order to produce the product.
• Moreover,both processes need building blocks of each macromolecule.

Treatment Of Breast Cancer
What Is Breast Cancer?
Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer among women in developed countries. The good news is that it’s also very treatable, so we can fight back and live a long healthy life. There is no known cause for breast cancer and although it has been linked to certain lifestyle choices such as smoking or obesity, research shows that genetics plays a big role.
When a woman gets her first period she is considered to be at high risk of developing breast cancer. However, even after menopause, the chance of getting diagnosed with breast cancer remains higher than other cancers because the cells continue to divide. In fact, the chances are 1 in 8 that a woman will develop breast cancer during their lifetime.
However, the chances of surviving for 10 years without having any signs of disease increase significantly if detected early. Some of the ways you can lower your chances of contracting breast cancer include: eating a well-balanced diet, exercising regularly and not gaining too much weight (more than 20 lbs). Also avoid taking hormones, drinking alcohol and smoking cigarettes.
Homeopathy Treatment Of Breast Cancer
Early Detection of Breast Cancer
If you want to avoid getting breast cancer, then you need to be aware of the symptoms. If you notice anything unusual, it’s important to get checked out by a doctor as soon as possible. If you wait too long, it may be too late.
There are different types of breast cancer, and each type has its own signs. So, if you think that you might have breast cancer, you need to see a doctor. Some of the most common symptoms include: pain in the armpit or underarm, a lump, nipple discharge, bleeding between periods, a change in the size of the breasts, a rash on the skin, a sore that doesn’t heal, a red area on the chest, swelling of the lymph nodes, a change in the shape of the nipples, and more.
So, if you suspect that you have breast cancer, then you should go to your doctor right away. If you don’t do this, you could end up waiting until it is too late.
Also, you need to keep an eye out for changes in the way that you feel. For example, you might start to lose weight suddenly. Or maybe you have trouble sleeping. These are all warning signs that something isn’t quite right with you.
Understanding a Breast Cancer Diagnosis
If you’re a woman, then you probably know what it feels like when you get a mammogram. A mammogram is a test used to detect breast cancer. This can be a scary experience for anyone. So, if you are going through this, you might want to talk to someone about how to deal with the situation.
The best way to understand a breast cancer diagnosis is to learn as much information as possible. When you’ve learned everything that you can, then you need to ask your doctor some questions. For example, you should ask them about the symptoms of breast cancer. You should also ask about the treatment options available and whether or not they will work.
Once you’ve got all of the answers that you need, it’s time to decide what you’re going to do. This is because there are many different treatments that you could choose from. Some people opt for surgery while others prefer chemotherapy.
You should also consider talking with other women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer before you make a decision. You don’t need to tell everyone that you know, but it can help you feel better knowing that you aren’t alone.
Symptoms of Breast Cancer
If you think you might be suffering from breast cancer, then you should visit your doctor as soon as possible. Breast cancer symptoms include a lump in the breast, pain, swelling, redness, nipple discharge, skin changes, and a change in bowel habits.
The best way to tell if you’re having these symptoms is by self-examining. When you examine yourself, you should feel for lumps or other abnormalities. If you notice anything unusual, then you should get it checked out immediately.
A mammogram can also help detect breast cancer early. A mammogram uses X rays to take a picture of the breasts. The pictures are then sent to a radiologist who will be able to determine whether there is a problem.
Another test that you may want to have done is an ultrasound exam. This involves putting a probe into the vagina and using sound waves to create images of the inside of the body.
Other tests that you might want to consider are a biopsy, a blood test, and a bone scan. These are all ways to find out more about your health and to see if you have any abnormal cells.
Inherited Breast Cancer
Inherited breast cancer is when a person gets breast cancer after their mother or father had been diagnosed with it. In fact, the chance of inheriting breast cancer is 50% if one parent was affected by it.
If you want to get rid of inherited breast cancer, then you need to take care of yourself. So, you should eat healthy and exercise regularly. Also, you should try to keep your stress levels low.
It’s also important to talk to your doctor about getting tested for the gene mutation. Your doctor can test you for the BRCA1 and 2 genes. If you have either of these mutations, then you are more likely to develop breast cancer. However, this does not mean that you will definitely get breast cancer.
So, if you do inherit the BRCA 1 or 2 gene, you still need to be careful. You might end up developing other types of cancers in addition to breast cancer. This is because the two genes are linked to many different forms of cancer.
If you don’t have a family history of breast cancer, then you probably won’t be at risk for the disease. But it’s always a good idea to find out whether there has been a family history before you start having children.
Risk Factors of Breast Cancer
If you want to protect yourself against breast cancer, you need to understand the risk factors associated with it. There are a number of different risk factors for breast cancer. Some of them are genetic, while others are environmental.
Genetic factors include having a family history of breast cancer. Other factors are your age, weight, and hormone levels.
Environmental factors include being exposed to radiation, working in certain occupations, drinking alcohol, using birth control pills, smoking cigarettes, and living close to a power plant.
It’s important to keep an eye on these risk factors if you don’t want to get breast cancer. But, there is one more factor that you should know about. This is the risk of developing another type of cancer called “second primary cancers”. When you develop a second cancer, it means that you have developed two types of cancer at the same time. So, when you think of breast cancer, you need to remember that it can lead to other types of cancer as well.
So, to prevent getting breast cancer, you should take steps to reduce your exposure to the various risk factors. You should also be aware of what you are eating and how much exercise you’re doing on a daily basis.
Prevention of Breast Cancer
If you want to prevent breast cancer, then you need to pay attention to your diet and lifestyle. There are many things that can cause breast cancer. These include genetics, obesity, alcohol consumption, and a lack of exercise. So, if you want to keep yourself healthy, you need to make sure that you take care of your body.
The best way to do this is by eating a balanced diet. This includes having vegetables, fruits, whole grains, lean protein, low-fat dairy, nuts, seeds, and oils. You also need to drink plenty of water. And you should try not to eat too much sugar. If you don’t follow these guidelines, then there is a high chance that you will develop breast cancer.
Another thing that you should do is to avoid getting overweight. This is because being obese increases your risk for developing breast cancer. You should get regular physical activity. Exercise helps you stay fit and keeps you in shape. It also gives you energy.
In addition, you should talk to your doctor about how you can reduce the risks of breast cancer. For example, you could use a mammogram. Or you might be able to lower the risk of developing breast cancer by avoiding certain medications.
Breast Cancer Risk Reduction for Women with an Average Risk
Women who have had breast cancer in the past are more likely to develop another one. This is why they are encouraged to undergo screening tests to detect it early.
In addition, if a woman does not have children, she is less likely to get breast cancer. However, this is not always true. For example, some women may still be at a higher risk of getting breast cancer even though they don’t have kids.
There are also other factors that can increase the risk of developing breast cancer. These include family history, age, and race. But, these aren’t the only risk factors. There are many others as well.
If you want to reduce your risk of having breast cancer, then you need to take certain steps. One of them is to drink plenty of water. Drinking enough water will help you stay hydrated. This way, you won’t become dehydrated and you won’t feel tired or fatigued.
Another thing that you should do is to eat healthy foods. Eating a balanced diet will give you the nutrients that you need to maintain a strong immune system. It will also keep you feeling full and satisfied.
It will also be helpful for you to exercise regularly. This helps to improve your overall health and it can also lower your risk of breast cancer.
Breast Cancer Risk Reduction for Women with a High Risk
If you want to reduce your breast cancer risk, you need to take action. This is because the more you delay, the greater your chances of developing this type of cancer. So, it’s important to get started as soon as possible.
The best way to lower your risk is to start taking steps to prevent breast cancer. These include eating healthy foods, getting regular physical activity, and having a screening mammogram every year.
It’s also important to talk about the benefits of breastfeeding. Breastfeeding can help to protect against certain types of cancers, including breast, ovarian, uterine, cervical, and colon cancer. And, if you are pregnant, then breastfeeding is a great way to ensure that you give birth to a baby who is healthy.
Finally, you need to think about your family history. If you have an immediate family member with breast cancer, then you should be aware of this. You might also want to ask them what they did when they were diagnosed. It’s important to know how to deal with these situations.
You should also find out whether there are any genetic mutations in your family. Some people inherit genes that increase their risk for cancer. But, others don’t. This means that you could be at higher risk of developing cancer.
Natural Treatment of Breast Cancer
According to the National Institute of Health (NIH), breast cancer is the second leading cause of death among women. In fact, one in ten Indian women will be diagnosed with this disease at some point during their lifetime.
Breast cancer occurs when cells divide uncontrollably and form a tumour. The most common type of breast cancer is invasive ductal carcinoma. This kind of cancer can spread through lymph nodes or other organs such as the lungs. If not caught early, it may also spread to distant sites like bone, liver or brain.
What Are the Types of Breast Cancer?
Breast cancer is a disease where cells in your breasts grow abnormally. This causes tumors to form, which may spread to other parts of your body. There are many different types of breast cancers, including ductal carcinoma, lobular carcinoma, mucinous carcinoma, medullary carcinoma, and Paget’s disease.
There is no cure for most forms of breast cancer, but there are treatments available that can help to control the symptoms. These include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapies, or biological therapies.
The best way to prevent breast cancer is to reduce your risk factors. This includes being overweight, having a family history of the disease, not exercising, smoking, drinking alcohol, and using birth control pills.
If you think that you might be at risk of developing the disease, then it’s important to get tested. The tests used to detect the presence of breast cancer are mammograms, clinical breast exams, and biopsies.
A mammogram is a test that uses x-rays to look for lumps, cysts, and calcifications. A doctor will use this information to determine whether you have breast cancer. This is the only screening method recommended by the American Cancer Society.
What Causes Breast Cancer?
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women. However, it’s important to understand why this happens. There are many different things that can cause breast cancer. For example, if you are a woman who smokes, then you have a higher chance of developing breast cancer.
Other factors include your age and your family history. If you are a woman over 50 years old, you should talk to your doctor about getting a mammogram every year. This will help you to detect early signs of breast cancer.
It’s also possible that your diet may be a factor. Some foods that increase the risk of breast cancer include red meat, fried food, alcohol, and processed meats. So, it’s important to eat a healthy diet. And make sure to avoid these types of foods when you do get the urge for them.
Another thing that could contribute to your chances of developing breast cancer is stress. If you feel stressed, then you should try and relax. You should also make sure that you are eating a balanced diet and that you are exercising regularly.
The best way to reduce the risks of breast cancer is to have regular screenings. These will allow you to find the problem before it becomes too serious.
Can Breast Cancer Be Prevented?
Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer in women. This is why it’s important to learn more about how to prevent it. There are many ways to do this, but you have to make sure that you are doing everything you can to reduce your chances.
The best way to prevent breast cancer is to eat healthy foods. This includes eating lots of fruits and vegetables, as well as drinking plenty of water. These things will help you to stay healthier. But it’s also important to get regular physical activity. This will keep you fit and strong, which will help you to avoid health problems.
There are other factors that you can take into account when you’re trying to prevent breast cancer. For example, there is a chance that your mother had breast cancer. If she did, then you may have an increased risk of developing the disease. Also, if you are overweight or obese, you are at higher risk for getting the disease.
Other risks include being older than 50, having a family history of the disease, and not taking enough folic acid during pregnancy. In addition, you should also limit alcohol intake, because this can increase your risk of breast cancer.
Living with Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is a disease that affects women’s health in many ways. In this video, we talk about what exactly breast cancer is and how to live with it.
The main symptoms of breast cancer include pain, swelling, redness, a lump, nipple discharge or skin changes. Most of the time, however, these symptoms don’t occur until the cancer is already at an advanced stage.
If you notice any of the above-mentioned symptoms, you should visit a doctor immediately. This is because you can catch breast cancer early if you get it checked out right away.
Once diagnosed, your doctor will help you understand the treatment options available. There are two types of treatments for breast cancer. The first one is called chemotherapy, which is used to treat the tumor cells. Another type of treatment is radiation therapy, which is used to kill off the remaining healthy cells. Your doctors may also prescribe hormone drugs that can reduce the risk of recurrence.
After the initial diagnosis and treatment, you need to monitor yourself regularly. You should have regular checkups with a medical professional. During the checkup, the doctor will examine your breasts and other parts of your body to look out for any new signs of breast cancer. If the disease comes back, you will be given another course of treatment.
What Is Metastatic Breast Cancer?
Breast cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells develop within the tissues of the breasts. These cancers can spread to other parts of the body, including bones, lungs, liver, brain, or skin.
Metastatic breast cancer is a type of breast cancer that spreads to other organs. This happens when the tumor cells break away from their original location and travel through the bloodstream to another part of the body. This may be the lymph nodes, bone marrow, blood vessels, lungs, brain, or other places.
The term “metastasis” comes from the Greek word meaning “to carry off”. So, it refers to how these cancer cells get to different locations in the body.
What is metastatic breast cancer?
Metastatic breast cancer usually starts as non-invasive cancer, but over time, more and more of cancer will grow into invasive cancer. Invasive cancers are those that have grown beyond the normal boundaries of the tissue. They often look like abnormal growths on the surface of the skin. In some cases, they can even appear inside the mouth, nose, throat, stomach, intestines, bladder, or rectum.
When this happens, it is called advanced-stage breast cancer.
Points To Remember
1. Introduction: The term metastatic breast cancer refers to a type of cancer that has spread from the original site to other parts of the body. This can occur in the bone marrow, lungs, liver, brain, eyes and lymph nodes.
2. Causes Of Breast Cancer: A person may develop breast cancer due to genetic factors. Other risk factors associated with this disease are being overweight or obese, having family history of it, early menarche age (before 12., late menopause age (after 55., low birth weight babies, exposure to radiation during pregnancy, long-term use of oral contraceptive pills, etc.
3. Symptoms: Women who suffer from metastatic breast cancer often show symptoms such as shortness of breath, swelling of the face, fatigue, pain in their bones, arms and shoulders.
4. Treatment For Metastatic Breast Cancer: If you have been diagnosed with this condition, it means that your doctor has found a lump or mass on your breasts or underarm area. Your physician will perform a biopsy to see if there is a tumor present. There are several treatments for this kind of cancer. These include chemotherapy, surgery, hormone therapy, radiotherapy and targeted therapies.
5. Natural Remedies To Treat Breast Cancer Herbs like ginseng, turmeric, green tea and milk thistle can be used to treat breast cancer naturally without any side effects.
6. Conclusion: The article has given you a detailed overview of metastatic breast cancer. It also gives you information about how to prevent the disease.
Prevention of Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancers in women today. That’s why a mammography test is so crucial to helping prevent this disease.
Mammograms are done by having a doctor place a special device over each nipple and then move a tiny wand around inside your breasts. This procedure takes only seconds. During that time, an X-ray machine captures images from all different angles of your breasts. Then, a computer combines those images into one picture.
A few weeks after your mammogram, a nurse contacts you to ask if you’ve noticed any changes on the pictures. If you do, you’ll need to call your doctor immediately. The image is sent to a radiologist who looks at everything and reports his or her findings. Based on this report, your doctor will decide whether you should have another mammogram within a year or two.
If they find something suspicious, it could be cancer.
What Is the Survival Rate of Breast Cancer?
The survival rate for women diagnosed with breast cancer varies depending on several factors. For example, if you are younger than 40 years old, then your chances of surviving five years after being diagnosed with breast cancer is 90%. However, if you are older than 60 years old, then your chance of surviving decreases to 80%
It is important to note that there is no single way to treat breast cancer. The treatment depends on the stage at which the disease is detected. The earlier you detect the disease, the better your chance of recovering.
However, this does not mean that early detection is always the best option. Sometimes it can be dangerous because you could miss other symptoms and end up having a more advanced form of the disease. So, you need to weigh all of these things before making a decision.
Another factor that affects the survival rate of breast cancer is the type of surgery performed. Some types of surgeries are less invasive than others. This means that they are safer and have a higher success rate. If you choose the right kind of surgery, then there is a high likelihood that you will recover.
Finally, some people are able to avoid chemotherapy altogether. This is because the side effects of this therapy can be very severe. Therefore, it is important to find out what works best for you and stick with that.
How Does Breast Cancer Start?
When you get a lump in your breasts, you might think that it’s just a harmless bump. But, if you don’t do anything, it can turn into breast cancer. Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women. So, you should always pay attention to your body and take care of yourself.
There are many different types of breast cancers. They range from non-invasive to invasive. Non-invasive breast cancers usually grow slowly. But, they still need treatment. In contrast, invasive breast cancers can spread to other parts of the body. And, they also need treatment.
In this video we will discuss how breast cancer starts. To do this, we will look at some of the factors that may cause the disease. We will then look at the symptoms of breast cancer and what it looks like. Finally, we will look at the treatments for breast cancer and the causes of death from this disease.
Genetics is one of the biggest risk factors for developing breast cancer. This means that your genes could be the reason why you are more likely to develop the disease.
What Is the First Breast Cancer Symptom?
The most common symptom of breast cancer is a lump in your breast. Other symptoms include a change in your nipple colour, pain, or a rash. These are just some of the many signs of breast cancer.
If you notice one of these symptoms, it’s important to get checked out by a doctor right away. This will help you to find out if you actually have breast cancer.
Some people don’t experience any symptoms at all. However, they still need to be tested. So, the best way to prevent breast cancer is to get regular mammograms.
A mammogram is a test that helps doctors to see your breasts. They can also check for lumps or other changes.
You should start getting mammograms when you turn 40 years old. This is because women under the age of 50 have less risk of developing breast cancer. But, once you reach menopause, your risk increases.
So, after the age of 50, you should begin getting mammograms every year. And you should continue to do this until you are 80 years old.
There are different types of tests that you can use to check out your breast health. You can also ask your doctor about them. If you’re not sure what type to choose, then talk to him/her.
What Causes Lumps in Breasts?
A lump in the breast is one of the most common health problem women face. Breast cancer is a disease where abnormal cells grow out of control and spread throughout the body.
The main cause for lump in breast is unknown but some factors may be responsible. These include genetics, hormonal changes, stress, pregnancy, and breastfeeding.
Some other reasons can also contribute to the development of a lump in breast like fibroadenoma which is a benign tumor. Fibroids are another type of tumors that can occur in breast tissue.
There are many ways to detect a lump in breast. One way is by self-examination, a second method is mammography, while the third option is to see a doctor.
If you feel a lump in your breast, you should immediately consult with a physician. If you wait too long, the chances of it being malignant increase.
So, if you notice any change in the size or shape of your breast, you should visit a gynecologist as soon as possible.
You should also keep an eye out for signs such as pain, redness, swelling, discharge from nipple, and fever. You might also have to undergo a biopsy to determine whether the lump is benign or not.

What is the standard quotation for the labeling machine? -Automatic labeling machine manufacturer-Online printing labeling machine-Shenzhen Bogao logo
by：Zhongya Packaging 2022-01-16
u200bu200bPresumably everyone will first understand the price when buying anything, especially the purchase of machinery and equipment. Now more and more people are starting to pay attention to the structure and configuration services of the labeling machine. It must be shop around and then ask about the price of the automatic labeling machine. Many customers and friends are consulting the manufacturer of the labeling machine. When the money is paid, does the manufacturer will not answer you directly, but give you a rough estimate of the price, because the labeling machine manufacturer cannot directly quote you, then why is this? First of all, everyone needs to first Let's understand the types of automatic labeling machines. Generally, labeling machines are customized according to the customer's functional needs. The advantage of this is that it can better match the company's production line, reduce cost and price, but also reduce the problem of labeling machines that are not suitable for customers' production lines. Bogao labeling machines include but are not limited to round bottle labeling machines, flat labeling machines Labeling machines, special-shaped surface labeling machines, are widely used in medicine, food, hardware, daily use and other commodities, but there are too many types of them, so the structure, function and procedure of each type of equipment are different. All will affect the price. Why are the quotations of different manufacturers different? Everyone must be wondering, why are the prices of the same equipment given by the various labeling machine manufacturers consulted are different? This is because the components of the labeling machine and the core processor PLC The selection of the labeling machine, the brand of the measuring electric eye, the accuracy and speed of the labeling machine will affect the price of the labeling machine to varying degrees. If it is a labeling machine manufacturer with high-end technology, the labeling machine produced by it will of course be better than other labeling machines in terms of quality and efficiency, so the price will be higher compared with other labeling machines. Why do I rarely see manufacturers quoting prices on the Internet, and only call to quote? The price of automatic labeling machine needs to call to inquire mainly to let the manufacturer know more about your requirements for the labeling machine, such as the labeling of the labeling machine To reach the speed (bottle/sheet/piece/hour), how should the labels be applied? Where do they need to be applied? Do you want to connect to the assembly line of your company’s production line? Where do you need to connect? And what do you have for the labeling machine? Upon request, Bogao will recommend the most suitable labeling machine for you according to your product, and then use the company’s technology to design the most suitable equipment for you according to your production line. It is best to combine the raw materials required by the equipment. Provide you with a quotation for this labeling machine!u200bu200bu200bu200b

[Feedback] 20 Hour Playtime
Hello there! I'm Samuel and i just want to share my game experience with you. I have a very small playtime (20 Hours) and finally reached the "endgame". The Game is impressiv, its fun and not as buggy as i expected. I'm gonna list my Pro & Contra in very short terms. My english is very bad so, already sorry for that. CONTRA 1. Terraforming is very buggy and not fun. 1.1 Flattening does not work that good atm, tried to make a cellar with Clay Blocks but the Dirt glitches into the cellar and trough the wall and so on. Sure its not that easy to make it work like we would wish to. 1.2 Miningbehavior feels strange, sometimes you "mine" a very big space and afterwards not a single voxel. Maybe a result of desync. 2. Worldgeneration is bad. Without the option to change some generation behaviors this will break my interest very soon. 2.1 I hate "Automatically generated Structures" and the "Loot Boxes" the most. 2.2 I would like to change the Map-Size to A. Unlimited or 40+ Ylands. (Yeah thats a Performance Thingy i know why its "limited".) 2.3 I would like to have the Ore-Patches mostly in the ground and very rare but very rich. (Opinionthingy, thats why i need a custom generation). 3. (Maybe not your Issue) Desync. After 15 Hours Coop i died to "clipping" - "glitching" animals, trough walls and trough tree's. I didnt hit a single hit with the spear yet. Our Current Bandwidth is 1.8Mbits and we sit next to each other. (Sure its still Internet-delay) 4. (Not that big Issue) Useless Cosmetics (Opinionthingy since you focus on both Exploring and Custom Games its fine i think) 5. Crafting Search sucks hard. PRO 1. Very sweet graphic's and good Voxel Generation/Sprites (Example Picture) 1.1 Good Atmospheric design style -> Cave's are really spooky. The Ocean is very "Heavy" as Wooden Rift. 1.2 Animals are fancy too. 1.3 Overall all Items/Workstations are very good. 2. Craftingsystem is really good for a "click-craft" mechanic. 3. Blueprint system with the camera is a great idea. 4. Its fun! 5. Book's with real content are awesome. 6. You could basically do everything you want. 7. Researchsystem is really good. The "Key-Items" helps too. SUGGESTIONS 1. I would like to have more deepth, actually its really good for the start, even as DLC its okay. (With the kiln etc.) 2. Modding Support. Everygame benefits from it. Some games are only still alive because of it. 3. Community Discord, i've read a bunch about you talk about it but that was 2017. It feels much better to talk to a person live than with a great downtime. Sure its much more work for you or you're community manager but as customer its an awesome feature. 4. Backpacks 5. Remake or Improve some Animations, a bunch of it glitches or looks very bad for the situation. Overall its a very good game for an Alpha Stage and i hope i see more great Updates. PS: Your "Not-A-Robot" buggs. Samuel

Here's some Feedback
4. It's another list, I tend to feel like single suggestions per post are easier for teams to find again if need be and any additions to a list once it been read once tend to me missed entirely, but if I made them all as single posts I'd be spamming the forum so they're here (I can create a new post for each if that would be easier) From playing I noticed how heavy my game was getting and started trying to fix it and help it run, bringing certain things to my attention that could prevent someones save from getting as bad as mine is, I also stream and that's where most of these came to my attention so I can probably demonstrate each of these issues if needed. There's others such as being able to mark maps and hide energy beams but I've seen them mentioned plenty of times so haven't included those and have tried not to include things like flying vehicle type suggestions which require big additions and are likely planned far in the future. If any suggestions/feedback are already dealt with somehow and I've missed how to then please correct me since I can't imagine there's anyone that can't be surprised by something in this game Suggestiony type - Please pause I know this has been requested a lot, but having to exit to main menu to pause single player is frustrating when bringing up the menu could just pause the game. Volume options ! This is a big one for me, since the weather can be EXTREMELY loud, I try to stream the game and it's like someones turned an un-tuned radio up full blast, being able to lower engine type noises would be nice too, sometimes we want to just chill and hover around the island without the prop pack being so loud or do some digging without surprise volume increase from an echo A vacuum for mass picking up items This comes from trying to repair my islands to help my game, picking up hundreds of stacks of 2x sand is not so fun, an item like a vacuum being eventually craftable would be amazing, like a leaf blower with the backpack looking thing, just to suck everything up then we can take stacks out of it op just set it to destroy so we can clear up our islands a bit and probably improve a fair amount of performance. - Adding to this a water tank upgrade could be built so people looking to add water inland for their pools or something could suck some up from 1 place, then empty the tank where they want it. Terraformer and annihilator in explore Being able to get hold of versions of these would benefit explore, the terraformer could need you to supply it the materials your filling and any it removes you don't get the item, it just takes it away, this would let us repair the damage such as from mining so much better. They would both need energy too, perhaps the annihilator has a low count to balance it out a bit. Superglue No idea what else this item could be honestly, but the ability to lock down free placed items, I've picked up items be accident so many times trying to do something else and it's not an item I want to be able to move anymore than the rest of my furniture, I also wonder if this could help with the load if it would be easier for the game to recall a structure as a big block instead of 200 1x1x1 cubes individually. Window additions (+other blocks) Here I mean a way for windows to connect since they aren't as thick as a usual block and something to connect them over corners, I wanted a glass surrounding but had to settle for ice blocks to fill the corners, unfortunately ice blocks have no sloped half block versions so it's made it more blocky than would have been nice Despawn timer Something which may help instead of adding items up pick up the amount of clutter dropped from digging, just despawn certain (or all, whichever) items after a set period of time if the player never interacts with them. Something to edit walls I can flatten the floor with my shovel, but next to my nice smooth ground is a dangerous looking cliff edge, it would be nice to be able to flatten their sides too Feedback type- item description page should item show condition When I hover over an item in my inventory it tells em the condition, so I click it and the info box opens where I have the option to repair, nowhere here does it tell me the condition though so I have to then go back to the inventory to check if I need to repair again or it's fixed fully. A switch on the flashlight (including helmets with them on) to turn them on or off or have them come on earlier and off later. I tend to find myself stuck in darkness because it's not dark enough to trigger the light on my guardian helmet yet it's too dark too see what's going on whereas a lamp is permanently on, an option on the action wheel when a flashlight item is equipped so we can turn it on and off ourselves would be useful. Sinful Ylanders and their gluttony My Ylander seems to need to eat a couple of weeks worth of meat in a day, even if he's just sleeping all day. The meat itself is massive, what's he doing with it all ? If I feed him other food he seems to need a constant supply of food going down his throat, the hunger seems a bit excessive (some sign of their hunger like a bar would be useful too) Sinful Ylanders and their wrath I assume it's not just my line of Ylanders but they have an obsession with punching everything, I plant some seeds and he punches the last one, I don't need them intimidated, I've never had a rowdy plant issue. This also goes for when placing objects and crafting places. Crafting recipes After deciding to do a slightly large build with blue steel this issue became very apparent, the recipes don't always make sense, every blue steel item needs 5 coal and 5 iron ingots, whether it's a 1x1x1 cube or a 4x4x1 square. The resources used for the little cubes make me emotional. Animals under the map After going into my save in the editor to try and fix my world a bit (11.5GB ram to run it was a bit ot) I found masses of animals a long way under my island, maybe they were spawns or something but deleting them didn't seem to effect my islands population at all so if they're not spawn markers or something then I'm not sure what's happened. Potions recipe page There's the tab when you've found a potion which tells you the ingredients needed and says things like "any grain" but if you try to craft it it won't accept any grain unless you have the same type of grain you had when you found the recipe the first time. A specific warning that you're about to craft a ship somewhere you will regret I know there's a warning, but with no idea how deep it actually needs mistakes can be made such as building in too shallow water and needing to dig the ship out and incase there's someone who hasn't noticed yet... do NOT dig near water your sea levels go extremely weird and without spawning the terraformer you cannot fix it again. When you rag doll water loses all it's power I fell, clipped the edge of my ship, fell of the side and straight to the bottom of the water and took fall damage as if the water wasn't there. It hurt and number 12 nearly died. Seagulls fly too low I've had these hit my ship before so have seen their godly power, today when one went through the front entrance and into my ship it was a terrifying experience and I was to scared to kill it for a while because I didn't want to break anything else. If they just flew higher it wouldn't be an issue how they abuse their powers. Stack consistency Something impossible to judge currently, can I hold 100 of these or are they single units only ? this extends to the crafting pages too, sometimes I expect a stack and get 1 item (damn you blue steel) sometimes I expect a single item and get big stacks (200 ice blocks surprise!!!) Editor I know the editor is known to need addressing but addition of a map, ability to move to player and a way of turning it to day so we can see would all be nice. A way to start game physics would be good too, when repairing the ground under water it makes the water to crazy, if you try adding water in the editor you can make towers out of it as it won't flow (till you go near it in game and it comes crashing down along with your frames) The editor also often lies about saving changes, which is rude. Cave logic I know the idea is not to live in a cave, but I can so I will. They have strange goings on though light will change suddenly a few steps in as light and heat no longer penetrates onto the giant opening of the cave, so within a couple of footsteps I can go from fine in bright sunlight to dark and freezing. Propeller pack when not in use It would be nice to have it either automatically fold the blades away or have an option on the action wheel since equipping it every time will get frustrating but getting stuck on doorways is frustrating too.
5. TLDR/Overview: Crafting and Building is not fun and needs serious work. Extended: I've played it for 12 hours before deciding to refund because I wanted to give the game a chance. 10 of these hours were playing the early game in survival restarting a couple times after making mistakes. First a few smaller issues Inventory is a mess, no easy sorting and not easy to find items. Constant bugs that hid items from my inventory and required me to exit and enter the game Items need descriptions, I can only assume that you already knew this and are working on it Item pickup seems fine at first until you start to deforest the place, I find myself running around like mad spamming right click at the floor First Person isn't finished yet and found myself using it quite a bit. What needs to be fixed is quite obvious and I can only assume the devs are working on that. Not going to go into the in-game store, but will say that It hasn't seemed intrusive to me and all purchases are clear on what you are getting and completely cosmetic, I think some people are still just riled up from EA's Battlefront 2 controversy. Now into the meat of it Crafting is tedious and is more of a mess than the inventory, I think the crafting needs a massive rework or complete overhaul as it is clear that it is part of the core gameplay. Problems with crafting: Can only make one item at a time (requiring spam clicking when mass crafting) Mass making building materials with something like a saw would mean it would constantly break (this is so annoying and only see it as a hassle) The above issue also adds to the frustration when not being able to craft something because you need one more pole to craft (and idea for a solution is to it to auto craft these items and consume the raw resources, maybe add a crafting time as well, so it takes longer to craft in one go if you don't have components than it would if you had all components already (see factorio's crafting system for ideas)) It isn't inherently clear that a repair kit consumes the hammer as smithing only requires it to use (initially I thought my hammer disappearing was a bug and found it very annoying after finding out why) Navigating the crafting menu was annoying, always having to search for things, wasn't clear at the beginning that recently crafted items are on top and thought it wasn't sorted in any manner (the crafting menu's look needs to change to make it fun and efficient for the player) Wanting to craft things that haven't shown in your recipe list is annoying, I had to go to the wiki in my first hour just to find out what things are and how to craft them (no game should require you to search online for relevant info) it can also lead to not knowing what is required to craft an item cause you don't know what sub-components you need As said crafting is part of the moment-to-moment gameplay, therefore, it needs to be fun, streamline and easy. Having categories and search bar is a start but certainly isn't enough, it's a little better with spawning blocks in creative mode menu where there are categories for types of blocks such as logs and stone block, etc. Building is also tedious, frustratingly time consuming and punishing, this also needs rework as it is another part of the core gameplay. I get the impression that the building system is trying to be realistic to a sense (kind of like ECO's block for block building system, but it works better there because blocks are inherently larger) Building is a slow process (even in creative mode), between collecting resources and building it feels as though it can take 30-60 min to build a shell of a relatively small and simple structure Placing blocks can be very annoying, where I misplace blocks a lot and have a hard time to get the block to go where I want it too, especially with the different sizes of blocks, I almost always used first person while building Once you place a block you have 2 minutes to undo it otherwise you have to spend what feels like way too long to destroy it and get nothing back for it, this comes off as very punishing as personally and sure many others like to experiment with buildings and it feels really bad after a structure is built and it looks bad and you have to either start new somewhere else or break a lot of it and get nothing back but scraps I'm not suggesting to have the time limit extended, but maybe a tool that could recover the block Having large blocks such as the massive log, it only has the one length and it's very hard to change or adapt. I suggest a carving axe or tool of some kind that could remove a voxel from a larger block, this also reduces the amount of different types of blocks and increases the amount of potential looks a structure could have that doesn't require placing small blocks several times over Crafting different styles and sizes of blocks is annoying cause you may craft many blocks that you no longer want cause you don't like the look of them or they turn out to be the wrong size and there isn't a way of reverting this. The creative building system is better than the survival but could still be improved, let's use logs for an example, instead of craft a bunch of different size logs you could have just the one log that you can place when placing it the player had the option of the size and length there (sort of like the variations in creative mode) and it consumes the amount of resources according to the size of the block Building also needs to be fun and rewarding (no matter how realistic you want your building system to seem) and should definitely take as long as it currently does to build something like a small cabin (sidenote: I may be cause I'm supposed to start out in a hut first, but I shouldn't be limited by that or anything, you should encourage players to build however they like) Looking at the dev roadmap, I see a lot of adding content to the game rather than refining what they have, may I suggest an equal focus on these because as I have pointed out the core gameplay is very flawed and no matter how many cool new things you add they all are going to involve the building and crafting system, which to me isn’t fun or rewarding as it should be. Whether my game gets refunded or not I hope for the best of this game and will repurchase at a later state if these are improved Any questions feel free to ask.
6. hey, i did play around a little with the buildingblocks and such. in exploration. i'm not sure yet how muh i like the solidify mechanic. it certainly adds to the challange the game poses to me, on the other hand it doesnt encourage experimentation that much. one example was with ship building: wanting a ship that looks "right" or even cool, but also was more or less efficient. i tried different spots for the two different masts, different orientations and such. everytime i had to hurry for a look from the distance, a short try how it moves and then dismantle what didnt fit my tastes. for this the 3 minutes are a bit tight. building on land was a very different experience: its a bit hard to guess how big a buildingblock is atm. there are some indicators with the required resources, but maybe there could be another hint, a size letter like the log and massive log has one? so i started to build with those small single block thingies. really like the "autorepeater" if building in the same directon. but then i missplaced a block and had to remove it (for the floorplates to fit). this was a horrible thing. i bashed it with a stoneaxe, then a iron axe, then the p-axe. something that show at least IF you damage the block would be cool. the final step was a bundle of dynamite.. i used those before, on dirt/rock mainly. so i thought that the stonebricks should go away too. well... i expected that most of the stonebricks and floorplates would be destroyed, but only the single block i wanted removed actualy was (which finaly proofed, that one of the axes did damage it). i also expected some collateral damage too, but was then a bit surprised, that the stoneblocks between dynamite and dirtground didnt block damage much (or at all?). surely a funny end to a bit of a frustrating remove-action. from other sandboxers, i'm used to be able to move around my craftingtables. mainly to put them into a house after its built or something similar. i was a bit grumpy about that first, but most craftingstations are cheap to build, so that fine for me now. only exception is the blacksmithing station, those 10 leather make the difference. (okay it was one out of ten islands which had very few animals, most of which were panthers, whose pelts a bugged). so: - i would like to have the solidify timer to be a bit longer, especialy for ship related stuff. - i would like to see if i damage a block and idealy how badly damaged it allready is. - some sort of indicator on how big a buildingblock is would be nice (floorplates are ok). i know i can try them out and explore, but yeah.. - also, that might be a topic which could lead to a new potion. a potion that can make solid items soft again. i'd really, really like that and it would probably fix most of my "not so nice" points above. - and the last thing is building time.. i admit that this is mostly because i'm a lazy dude, but it would be more exciting to see a project take shape faster. i'm a big fan of building elements that i can stick together, not for fences or similar stuff, but for walls and such. maybe there could be drawingstation, where we can make blueprints for bigger elements (like a wall or roof) and place it in one go. (stonehearth has something like this e.g.)
7. Hi team, Well what can I say? What a fantastic game, I purchased Ylands not long after watching the E3 Showcase and have been enjoying it ever since. I load up Ylands on a daily basis and play for many hours. At the moment I streaming Ylands on a daily basis on a popular Streaming service (not sure if I am allowed to say which?) to promote and show off how wonderful Ylands is. I am currently using the explorer mode on the basis I want to discover all recipes and crafting at my own time and speed. I was playing Ylands on a dedicated server to begin with, with a few friends, however they have decided to call it a day for now, until there is a more major solution/fix to the server problems. With finding Ylands a great game to play in a relaxing environment, it does have its moments and frustration points. Perfectly understandable considering it is in Alpha. So anyway on to the gripe at hand lol. The multiplayer game that I am hosting for the forth time (as the other times we have had to delete and start over) has decided to bug out again, I have been meaning to post on numbers of occasions, but I just want to get in and play lol. So at the moment we are not able to access storage baskets and chests. If I decide to log out to the main menu, the storage chest I just tried to access flashes up on the screen before the game closes? We can still create/craft/mine etc, but accessing inventory and chests is impossible . Multi re-logs does not fix the problem and am not sure what else to do? I have been saving extra game saves in different folders on my system, to do roll backs, but I have become a little tired of rolling back after creating so much, so for now, I will hold on playing multiplayer and wait out for a fix or solution. I look forward to hearing from you Team and keep up the good work, Sith
8. Hi Ylanders! Congrats to all on the promo vid, v nice! I have been doing some testing of the Stylish Sharing pipeline and thought I'd give some feedback, I probably need some clarification on what is / is not currently possible! I have been able to upload a Composition and Scenario (IMHO - confusingly called 'Game' in workshop) that were created from scratch with the editor but have been unable to upload one of my Explore games opened in the editor. Is it possible to share a played Explore map? If so how do we do this? Also, why are the editor options different for a 'Game' edit session, e.g. no terrain tool, no Play option? Here is what I tried, what worked, what didn't and some comments:- Uploading a Scenario (which the workshop calls a game): 1. Open a saved Scenario. 2. I have all the options as when starting a new scenario, e.g. Terrain and Play. 3. I'm happy with my Scenario and choose File>Pack for sharing, IMO This is self explanatory and couldn't be easier! 4. The console gives feedback that the Game is ready to be shared, good. 5. The console tells you where the saved file is, Cool. 6. What it doesn't tell you is that to avoid an overwrite it suffixes the file name with a number, Not so cool! 7. A notification message would be nice and possibly an option to choose the filename... ...pre-populate a suffixed number by default (for those of us that don't read notification messages and just hit return! ) 8. I then tried a couple of File>Save As 's which worked OK but I have the same comment as above about overwriting filenames and... 9. Console feedback, OK. 10. Console feedback, IMO weak. It didn't confirm where or what filename had been saved. 11. Tried another Save As of the same Scene with a different save name. 12. Worked OK. 13. File>Saved As again but this time didn't change the filename which results in the 'automatic' suffixed number to the file name which presents the following to the user next time they open the editor, duplicated files... Trying to upload an Explore Game: 1. Open a game (created in 4.0 Stylish Sharing). 2. Why are the editing tool options different? e.g. No Terrain tools, no Play? 3. File>Pack for sharing... Nothing seemed to happen, I waited, waited and then decided nothing was happening... 4. The same thing happened for File>Save As... nothing seemed to happen after entering a filename and clicking Save... 5. I waited and waited and then assumed nothing was happening and clicked cancel. Behind the scenes, the automatic file suffixing: At some point during the testing my Laptop sprung a leak! Sorry I can't be more specific as to what caused it...

hey, finaly had time to try the new update. just started a new yland but already found lots of vein on the surface (iron, copper, coal, sufur, clay and flint) thats very handy, cool. not sure if it is new, but to me the bamboo hut is a new location to be found, cool. and the animals... the predators are a treat to a new character, a panther chased me halfway around the island.. a nearby panther awoke and joined the first with which i was battling.. a jaguar jumped me while digging up some clay, it had been sleeping on the other side of a hill.. score is 2:3 for me atm (they realy didnt want me to get that clay).. and i'm a bit scared to go out at night again! that is cool too, even with a straightbow i found it was challenging (well, i guess i'm not that great a bowman in the game as it turned out..). like it a lot so far!

11. Hi Ylander Devs! The Hotbar Red indicator for a broken item can be broken! When repairing an axe the axe must be kept 'active' in the Hotbar or it will retain it's Red indicator as broken, although it IS actually Repaired. Please see images below: 01 Hotbar Red indicator for broken axe 02 Inventory confirms axe is broken 03 Cause bug by changing Hotbar item 04 Open inventory to Repair axe 05 Repair the axe while not holding it 06 The axe IS repaired 07 BUG the axe is shown broken Work around 08 Workaround - Place something else in Hotbar 09 Workaround - Place the axe back in Hotbar 10 Fixed - The Hotbar displays the axe as Repaired - Smashing! I came across this while playing a few days ago, added it to my list of things for feedback and have chopped a lot of trees to try and replicate the issue today, but it IS repeatable now I know what caused it, (changing to an empty hand before doing the repair). I have not tested this for other items. I hope this is helpful!
12. Hi Ylander Devs! The written prompt indicates that bird nests contain bird nests, rather than eggs or feathers. And once the eggs or feathers are removed the prompt indicates that there are two nests. Please see images below: I'm sure many people have spotted this and I apologise if I'm duplicating, duplicating!
13. Hi Ylander Devs! On my computer the Screen shot saved file names are not in the 24 hour file format. e.g. A screen shot taken at 17 minutes past 10 in the evening should be 22:17 but is saved as: Ylands_170505_101750 Please see image below:
14. Dear developers, I am currently enjoying your game a lot. I finished the learning ysland and the other one where you have to free the engineers and I had a lot of fun in the process. However, now since I'm spending time in the explore game mode, I'm finding that there's a serious lack of guidance right now. There's no real indication of how to build a forge for example and crafting looks really confusing, It could really be improved to be more aesthetically pleasing as well as easier to understand. I know survival isn't the primary focus on the development in this game, as it is more about creativity and creating any type of game mode you'd like, but the survival aspect is really fun already and I believe you can get a big audience for just that aspect of the game. Things I like: Building is absolutely brilliant! It's the most precise and easiest building mechanic in any survival game. The graphics are amazing. I'm loving the creative freedom Your humor. There are so many items, I love it! However, these things need some work in my opinion: Stack splitting and being able to drag, destroy or drop a stack of items. The overall crafting needs more work, it's just not clear how I can progress with items and gear. Animations - some animations are very stiff, lacking or not aesthetically pleasing. Walking sideways makes your character appear like he's moonwalking for a second. Also, chopping wood could use an animation that gives more feedback on if you are actually chopping wood or not. Sometimes I find myself hitting the ground before realising that I have to find that sweet spot to chop a tree. If the character would take on a different stance, it would really be more immersive as well as easier to see if I'm actually chopping a tree or not. Animations overall could be more fluent. Performance - I think the game loads the whole island at once, I'm not a programmer, but right now the game requires a lot of processing power. I hope the UI will change in the actual release of the game. Overall, I'm really enjoying this game, and I truly hope it will catch on. I just was immediately intrigued after playing the tutorial, I'm curious about future updates. Here are some pictures of my little shelter that I'm working on right now, even though the survival experience doesn't yet feel complete, I'm having a great time. It takes a while to create a shelter, but it actually feels more worthwhile than in for example; Minecraft. Don't be discouraged by the more present list of things I dislike, I'm loving the game, thank you for developing this piece of awesomeness. I wish I could somehow be more involved in the creation of this game because I'm really feeling it. isn't there a way to help out using my graphic design skills or something? Haha, anyway, cheers and keep doing what you do over there.
15. First of all, great game. There are some performance issues (which will be resolved in future I believe), but mostly the game is bugless. Now, onto feedback thing. The terrain tools need to be all in 3D, including flatten/paint/smooth ones. The current ones would be fine if the terrain would be a heightmap one, but it isn't (which is great, by the way). As it is now: The flatten tool fails to work properly if there are empty (air) voxels between the level you try to flatten the ground to and the terrain above.The material paint tool is hard to aim properly, even in first personSimilar to paint tool, smooth tool is hard to aim properly AND it's very hard (to the point of impossibility, although I think you can agree that there are no impossible things, there is only lack of skill needed to complete the task) to smooth out layered terrain, like e.g. when sculpting (example being dragon shown in the trailer, although I don't know whether it is terrain work or a prefab)As a Unity game developer myself (won't plug my game here, even though it also does low poly untextured, unless specifically asked by the devs/mods), I'd like to thank you for creating such easy to use and powerful building system. As a person who wants to do something similar in the future (although in more realistic setting), i.e. building from single building materials, such as bars, planks, bricks, etc., instead of slapping prefab walls, floors, etc. like e.g. in Rust, I'd like to ask you if you're using some tricks like combining meshes or if those are just freeform prefabs connected by nothing. Finally, one thing I'd add to the building system would be more kinds of bricks. Or at least ability to select material of one. Those sandstone ones can easily get boring, we need clay and stone bricks (and different kinds of stone). So far you've made great progress and I wish you best of look.
16. During Ylands' Early Alpha, you will most likely run into problems, have suggestions, or see something that you'd like to see differently. And we want to hear what you have to say! This guide includes a few tips about how to give feedback to the development team. Are you in the right place? If you're submitting a bug report, please post it in the bug reporting section. If you have feedback/suggestions for the game, please post that in the feedback section. To see a list of the most current and frequent issues/questions, please check this post. A few things to try before creating a topic: 1) Check this post to see what to do in case of technical issues. 2) Use the search feature and see if anyone else has had the same issue. If there's a topic marked with a green "Resolved" text it means that it has been solved. 3) Ask yourself if this is an issue that will be able to be resolved over the forums. If in doubt, send in a support ticket. Please note that: The more details, the better - screenshots and videos are always welcome! The Forum Guidelines still apply to the bug reports/suggestions. When you create a topic, please avoid using non-descriptive titles such as: "HELP!!!" "Problem!!!". Please use a clear title that includes your problem.

Pelosi and Mitch McConnell plots his next steps I'm Ben Shapiro this is the Ben Shapiro show [Music] the Ben Shapiro show is sponsored by expressvpn protect your online privacy today and express it VPN calm / Manuel do you feel uncertain about things these days does it feel like the country is existing on knife's edge does it feel as though the economy could be inflated or could it possibly be depressed do you know anything I don't know anything it feels like nobody knows anything because everything is a mess and it's about this time you should be thinking maybe I should diversify my portfolio because if you don't know what's coming and nobody does it is a good idea to have one foot in each area of the market which means you have only 12 feet but one of those feet should actually be in precious metals and this is where Birch gold comes in I trust the folks at Birch gold I've known them for years they've been working with me for years right now they actually have a really great offer for the holidays they call it the silver stocking stuffer event when you contact Birch gold group this month to buy precious metals once you complete your purchase before December 20th Birch gold will send you free silver it's a great stocking stuffer or Hanukkah gift you have a conversation with the Birch gold expert have all your questions answered ask all them so you feel like you have full information and then at that point you might want to think about putting at least some of your money and precious metals that the government cannot inflate that the government cannot mess around with you know an actual hard asset that has a price go check out Birch gold right now all you have to do is text Ben - 47 47 47 and claim your eligibility for their special offer today again text Ben - 47 47 47 we're always grateful to work with Birch gold and I think you'll enjoy working with them to text Ben to 47 47 47 all right so today is the day today is the big historic oh so everybody's very up for this impeachment thing very exciting it's a historic day so much history making history history history hey let me just explain something history will care I don't and the reason is cuz it's like going to a movie where you already know the ending it's the most predictable movie in the world the Democrats are going to impeach the Republicans are going to acquit in the Senate it's not going to have any masks impact on the election everything in the world is baked into this cake old shoes human feces everything is in the cake when it comes to 2020 the only met the only factor that is not baked into the cake is who the Democrats will nominate we'll get to that a little bit later on in the show when it comes to trump everything is baked into the cake and I realized this morning I was thinking about this with regard to how people view President Trump because really how you view the impeachment is a referendum on how you view President Trump and even more than president Trump how you feel about the broader political situation in the United States I don't think that many people are actually looking at the charges in this case and reading the Democrats a six hundred and fifty nine page report and then reading the Republicans 200 page response and being like well after considering all of the transcripts and all of the facts here's where I come down on the legal mettle of this case on the evidentiary burden hasn't been met or has it not been met I don't think that most Americans are thinking that way I think most Americans are thinking to themselves is this impeachment appropriate or is this impeachment not are the people trying to impeach Trump politically motivated or are they motivated by just concern for the Constitution and preventing foreign countries from interfering in America's elections I feel like we've been speaking past each other for quite a while here and so there are a couple issues on which this is a referendum on Trump and then there are a couple issues where this is a referendum on American politics as a whole and it's all wrapped up together in a ball and that's what people's opinions on impeachment are when it comes down to this I think do you think that President Trump is a murderer or a CEO coroner is he a political murderer or is he a political coroner so if you are on the Left you look at President Trump and you say look at this wild dude look at this person he lies frequently he says things that are dishonest he he breaks every rule of the presidency he says things out loud that should never be said he gets on phone calls and just jabbers to the president of Ukraine about his political opponents he's the kind of guy who will say or do anything he'll insult people on Twitter he rips the media and then he degrades the view of people of the media because he sees them as his enemy he calls them the enemy of the people this is somebody who cannot be normalized and this is why you've heard Democrats say and people in the media say since literally the day he was alive didn't really sense that he was nominated we cannot accept this as the new normal cannot accept this as the new normal in other words Trump murdered all of these conventions right there were all of these conventions that the media were trustworthy and Trump murdered it he took it out back without it with a pickaxe and buried it in the I like like Leon Trotsky that Trump has murdered civility before this we were a republic of comedy and you see this in the rewriting of Barack Obama's history by the media it has now been an accepted part of the media's history the Barack Obama was actually a politician of comedy and unity and spends his days trying to cut bipartisan deals which for any of us who have a memory longer than that of the fish Dory in Finding Nemo we have recognized that's a bunch of crap okay but for folks on the Left it's like well you know Barack Obama that was a man of honor and civility civility and I remember a lot of civility from broccoli but they do they do don't you remember those days when there was a consensus that politics stopped it water's edge that you never militarized foreign policy on behalf of your own political viewpoint and now Donald Trump has rats that he's the murderer of that political consensus the idea that we were all in it together and it's true domestically to Trump is polarized us along domestic political lines whereas once we were unified it is Trump who has who has wrecked everything and is the view of the left and the view of the media when it comes to impeachment they say well if we don't impeach now then we've broken impeachment forever if we don't impeach now then the very conventions of impeachment will have been destroyed for all time Trump will have murdered them it will just be another casualty of his evil his the view of the left is that Donald Trump is the political murderer right that he is Michael Myers and that he is stalking Jamie Lee Curtis and that Jamie Lee Curtis is all that is good and right with the American Republic and then there is the view of the people who are I would say probably on the middle or on the right and that view is that Trump is not actually a political murderer yes he exacerbates a lot of the problems that the country has already been experiencing no he's not militating against any of those but Trump is much more a coroner than he is a murderer that his election represents the recognition by the American people that all these things were already dead Trump came upon the the still-warm corpse of American politics and then he declared it dead and so Democrats seeing a man standing over the body are going oh that guy probably killed him right that guy's the murderer and Republicans conservatives independence they're looking at trumpet they're going nope that body was dead and Trump didn't exactly like get down on his hands and knees and perform CPR on the guy but he ain't the murderer he's the coroner he's the person who came along and declared all of these things dead so the media the media's credibility was gone it was already gone Newt Gingrich was hacking it in 2012 to wild acclaim the media had already made clear that they were nothing but but sort of drool carriers for Barack Obama so Donald Trump coming along and ripping the media that was nothing new that was just him declaring something dead that we all knew was dead and when it comes to civility Barack Obama was going around insulting everybody who didn't agree with him it's a bitter clinger joe biden was going around saying that Mitt Romney Mitt Romney was gonna put black people back in Chains and he was an evil person who put dogs on top of his car in all of this he was it was interest groups in favor of Barack Obama super PACs running ads suggesting that Mitt Romney had fired people so their wives would get cancer and die so don't tell me the civility died because Donald's from put a stake through its heart Donald Trump is the coroner he came along he said let their civility it's dead so I'm not gonna I'm not gonna pretend it to that don't sound be civility here the same thing when it comes to this quorum quote consensus there was no consensus on American foreign policy politics did not stop at water's edge most of us are old enough to remember when mainstream members of the left were suggesting that George W Bush was a war criminal and should be tried in The Hague we remember when the Democrats were undermining the the Iraq war when we remember when the Democrats were pulling precipitously out of Iraq and leaving room for Isis so let's not pretend that there was some sort of broad foreign policy consensus when Barack Obama Ben Rhodes were lying to the faces of the American people about the supposed moderation of the regime in Iran you remember all of that and so Donald Trump came along and again acted as the coroner and he looks at time of death 11:20 and he's just the coroner he ain't the murderer and then finally when it comes to impeachment and that's today's news people have no left they're like well if we don't impeach over this and we won't be able to impeach over anything and you know what there there is truth to the notion that whenever Congress slides it's impeachable responsibilities that the the ability to impeach is degraded there's no question that that is true that the less you use a particular impeachment is like any other muscle of the political body politic unless you use it the MOR atrophies it's only been used four times in American history one of those times had ended in the resignation of President Nixon somebody said to me today somebody on the right said to me today who's a fan of the impeachment effort said to me well you know if President Nixon were around today he wouldn't be impeached right he would stick around and the answer is that's probably true if President Nixon were in office today if Watergate had happened it's probably true that he would have stuck around it is also true that he was impeached for actual crimes this impeachment effort to distinguish it and to be completely fair this impeachment effort has no crimes attached to it which is why the Democrats did not charge bribery that's why they did not charge wire fraud it is why they did not charge an obstruction of justice instead they crafted these political crimes to avoid having to prove the elements of an actual crime so it's pretty obvious what they're trying to do here but if you want to say that bad activity by the President of the United States is impeachable well guess what even their President Trump is acting as a coroner he is not acting as the murderer so he's not making the problem any better can't reviving the the honor and coherence of the presidency but I'm old enough to remember when Barack Obama's IRS was targeting conservatives was finding keywords in IRS applications and then mixing those IRS applications for nonprofit status if those nonprofits happen to be conservative I remember when that happened and the Republicans didn't impeach him over it the fact is impeachment was atrophied the moment the Bill Clinton was not thrown out of the thrown out of the White House the man obviously committed perjury and obstruction of justice he was not ousted at that point the political body politic it was atrophied and so for Democrats to come around now and be like well this is completely partisan yeah and it was completely partisan in 1998 when the Democrats decided that despite open crimes by the President of the United States he's not gonna be impeachable so Trump declared this thing dead now on a broad level on a broad level should the president be impeached on a broad level most presidents should probably have been hitched or at least many presidents should have been impeached when Barack Obama was launching wars in Libya without the express permission of Congress when dot when Barack Obama was droning American citizens overseas I mean like what and if you're on the left when George W Bush was exceeding his mandate with the war in Iraq using the authorization to use military force for Afghanistan and Iraq right all of these things in any sort of vacuum would appear as quote unquote impeachable offenses but in fact is this the impeachment has been a dead letter for a long time civility has been a dead letter for a long time consensus has been a dead letter for a long time the media's credibility have been a debt has been a dead-letter for a long time and so this is why I think that Democrats look at Trump and they see every outrage is a new outrage a fresh outrage because they believe that none of this is true they believe that everything was hunky-dory under Barack Obama that everything was wonderful and civil and delightful and cheerful and happy they pretend the Bush years didn't exist that Bush was just one of those wild outliers it's weird how in the Democratic view every Republican is an outlier but the fact is that Donald Trump was the new normal before Donald Trump was the new normal Donald Trump was the coroner of POD of America's politics he was not in fact the murderer of America's politics now that does raise the question as to how we rebuild in American politics in this arena with all of our institutions mistrusted and as I say I don't think that Donald Trump is rebuilding those institutions I don't think the president Trump is restoring the integrity of the White House of the media I don't think that he's restoring civility I don't think he's restoring consensus I'd only he's doing a lot of those things but that does not mean that Donald Trump is the person who broke them he came upon the warm but dead body of American politics and and here's the proof of this the Democrats are about to nominate Bernie Sanders can you imagine an election between Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders I mean last time around if you didn't think that was the death of American politics Donald Trump versus Hillary Clinton one of the most widely despised hated politicians of the last thirty years against a man who arrived on the political scene five seconds ago and had the lowest approval ratings for any candidate in American history I don't not to tell you our politics is broken before Trump Trump was just the person who made it obvious that the politics were broken that's not impeachable you don't put that up for an election in November you can do that but the real reason Democrats want to impeach Trump is because they want to assume that if it were not for Trump the American body politic could be alive and well and that ain't the case that simply is not the case okay so today the impeachment vote is happening the Democrats are going to impeach President Trump the media will declare this a historic moment and then this thing will move on to the Senate it's not gonna pay off for the Democrats politically speaking it's gonna be pretty ugly for the Democrats actually politically speaking Jim McGovern Democrat of Massachusetts chairman of the House Rules Committee he says if a president's undermining our national security and using the federal government for his own selfish personal gain is not impeachable concepts then madam conduct than madam Speaker I don't know what is again the Democrats speaking the language of if we don't impeach an impeachment itself has been broken guys impeach was broken quite a while ago now if you want to ask about whether you think this particular set of facts is impeachable my answer for a long time has been no because I don't think that you've actually fulfilled I don't think that you have actually fulfilled the standard here I don't think that you have actually fulfilled the criminal standard necessary to drive bipartisan approval but with that said again impeachments been broken for a very long time to say that this is what breaks the mold there's never gonna be a legit impeachment again in American history barring some sort of resurgent American unity which I don't see happening in the near future to you and we'll get to more of this in just one second first let us

impeachment is broken the Republican narrative is you're cherry-picking the evidence Tom Cole of Oklahoma the ranking Republican on the House Rules Committee said the Democrats were being partisan and using cherry-picked evidence to fit their narrative he says if we're really being honest Democrats have been searching to impeach Trump since the day he was elected and that of course is true they've been they've been looking to impeach Trump because they believe that Trump is the aberration the American body politic was healthy and Trump murdered it and if we can withdraw Trump and withdraw the knife everything goes back to normal except there wasn't a normal there wasn't than normal in the first place and I think most Americans understand this which is why the impeachment stuff is not going anywhere people feel like Democrats are partisan people feel like this has nothing to do with healing the body politic and everything to do with exacerbating the divides inside the body politic this is how the American people feel so the way you can tell this most most easily is the fact that Democrats are not even running ads on impeachment Republicans are Nick Korres sanity writing for the New York Times for the past two months television ads across central Virginia have sounded a lot like president from sweater a rigged process a sham impeachment no quid pro quo but Pelosi's witch-hunt continues and ad from the Republican nonprofit group America first policies cried as images of Abigail Spann Berger who represents the region in Congress flickered on screen span burger of course is a blue Democrat in a in a red district or purple district during the roughly two months the impeachment inquiry has been underway Trump and his Republican allies have flooded the airwaves spending more than sixteen point seven million dollars on ads critical of the impeachment effort a vast majority of those ads attack House Democrats rather than defending the president according to advertising analytics an ad tracking firm groups are not fighting back directly are choosing to instead focus mainly on other issues like health care which shows you what they think right if they thought that a referendum on Trump would win them reelection if they think they're just shouting that Trump is gonna skew the election unless you get out and vote is going to win the election for them even they don't think that instead they're running ads on health care they're spending just 5.4 million dollars on television ads specific to impeachment instead the most prominent democratically funded message on TV is Mike Bloomberg for president so the Democrats are not spending I'm pushing the impeachment effort why because they know the American people do not agree with them that Donald Trump the elected president of the United States remember 63 million people voted for him and right now he's favored in the polls to win reelection in according to the latest polls out the only Democrat who's capable of beating him is Joe Biden and but Biden's fading in the polls against Trump that he's lost ground to trump over the past couple of months and so the American people are just not buying the argument that if you don't get rid of Trump the American people will not be heard now Trump himself and honestly Trump himself makes the case for Democrats that he is out of the box but the American people still see through them they say yeah no politics was out of the box you are just this is just the latest episode in in Arkham Asylum over here so president Trump has sent a letter to Nancy Pelosi it's something that his base enjoys because the letter is full on Trump I mean is Trumpy Trump be Trump II it's something that the middle of the country kind of shrugs at because they figure okay well independents like yeah that's Trump that's my Trump like we know him we got it and Democrats are infuriated by because again two Democrats he's the murderer he's not the coroner his very presence is the knife wound in the body as opposed to everybody else's like ya know he you know he's just a symptom he ain't the cancer he's the symptom right just like most other things in American politics are symptoms of a broader ill so here is president Trump's letter to Nancy Pelosi and it is it is wild okay it's a wild letter it makes some points it is colorful and it is just an indicator that if the American people want to get rid of this guy guess what a year from now 11 months from now they will have every opportunity to do so and the Democrats don't want to give you the opportunity to do so they get to make their case that Trump not be the new normal they get to make their case that Trump is everything wrong with the body politic and you may not buy that case and that's what they're afraid of because here's the thing Democrats I ask this to Bill Maher once we're talking about the the Russia Trump stuff and I said at the time I don't think there's evidence that that Donald Trump worked with the Russians to skew the 2016 election and Maher was like really you don't is on on real time he's about two years ago maybe I said I don't think there's evidence for that and if evidence does emerge then I will rethink my position but I don't think the evidence is there for that and he's like really you don't think that and at the same time he was maintaining that Trump was an idiot I said well you're gonna have to pick either he's an idiot or he's a mastermind or he's a criminal mastermind which is it well Democrats are sort of stuck in the same position with regard to this Trump Ukraine stuff on the one hand he's a criminal mastermind deviously seeking to skew the results of the 2020 election by using a Ukrainian foreign policy to interfere with American politics on the other hand he's a done during who stumbles from place to place now the reality is Trump is just Trump he's a set of responses to stimuli Donald Trump is galvanized frog of politics hey sometimes it's great he's a contained nuclear facility every so often the nuclear the nuclear facility becomes uncontained and you have run over every so often you have a near meltdown but the fact is that the walls of American constitutional systems are very thick the cement walls are very thick they basically contain him and so when we get glimpses of the of the nuclear power underneath it's like oh man but do we feel that he's basically contain I think the American people basically feel this is contained now whenever he issues these letters people on the left leg land this is why he should be impeached and guess what because you think you should be impeached over this letter this is why we don't trust you really cuz this letter ain't impeachable now you've seen Democrats being like this is the very reason why Donald Trump should be impeached the letter is basically just a six page long restatement of his main thesis which is that the impeachment is a disgrace something that he said yesterday in a press conference here's President Trump explaining that the vote itself is a disgrace to impeach the President of the United States for that is a disgrace and it's a mark on our country and I'll tell you what other presidents and in the future unless they do something about this other presidents are gonna have to live with this and every time they do something that's a little bit unpopular a little bit strong even if they're a hundred percent right because I've done a great job okay so Trump men sends a letter to this effect and Nancy Pelosi responds to the letter is that the letter is sick and just another reason why he should be impeached okay well that is a referendum again on is he the murderer or is he the corner the letter to her is evidence that he's the murderer the response from the American people basically has been nope you were part of this Nancy you've been here for years Donald has been here for like three years you were one of the murderers of American politics we were there we remember here's Nancy Pelosi calling the letter sec essence of it it's really sick it's really sick guys it's only it's sick and every Republican goes yeah you know it's sick you leaping to an impeachment inquiry without evidence of an actual crime right that's what's really sick and just a second we'll get to the actual text of president Trump's last his pre impeachment letter the last letter that he will write as a non impeached president in the house I'll get to that in one second because it is entertaining it is it is all you have come to expect from President Trump we'll get to all of those things in just one second first we need to talk about the fact that your computer that your car basically it can break down and when it breaks down you don't know how to fix it anymore it ain't like an old 1965 Chevy where you can open the engine take a look inside and fix the thing basically your car is a computer on wheels and what that means is that anytime

wrapped up into a ball from the President of the United States so here he is dear madam Speaker I write to express my strongest and most powerful protests against the partisan impeachment crusade being pursued by the Democrats in the House of Representatives this impeachment represents an unprecedented and unconstitutional abuse of power by Democrat lawmakers unequaled in nearly two and a half centuries of American legislative history okay now you know that Trump is writing this because he is capitalizing bizarre words so Democrat and like lawmakers is capitalized for no reason not not really sure why to be fair it is not an unconstitutional abuse of power the constitute like he couldn't appeal his impeachment the articles of impeachment introduced by the House Judiciary Committee are not recognizable under any standard of constitutional theory interpretation or jurisprudence they include no crimes no misdemeanors and no offenses whatsoever if cheapened the importance of the very ugly word impeachment hey this happens to be true hey that this happens they do not include a crime and this is a point that I've made right yes it is true that if Richard Nixon came up from Pietschmann today probably he would not be impeach it is also true that at least that impeachment effort had crimes attached to it the same thing happened to be true with Bill Clinton who had perjury and obstruction of justice attached to it the Democrats specifically crafted these charges to avoid

Difference between interpolation and Extrapolation
Difference between interpolation and Extrapolation
Let us look at the differences between interpolation and Extrapolation.
1. Definition
Interpolation: interpolation is a statistical method that is useful in estimating unknown values by using known values.
The unknown value is usually between two known values and may appear like the midway of the two known points.
This is a statistical method used to predict unknown values for points outside the range of the recorded data. It is used to extend a known sequence of values beyond the sampled area.
2. Obtaining the unknown value
Interpolation: when this method is used, the unknown value(s) is obtained between the two known values. Therefore, the estimated value is within the sampled area.
Extrapolation: In this statistical method, the unknown values are obtained from the outside of the sampled area. The point chosen may either be above or below the known points.
Interpolation: this method is largely used in predictions of data and values within the range. When working with this method, we can be confident that our predictions are realistic since their values are derived within the sampled area. True or close values are needed during curve fitting, and thus, the interpolation method may be more accurate than any other method.
Extrapolation: with Extrapolation, we can be less confident with the unknown values derived using this method. The method includes values from outside the sampled area, which makes the predictions diverge away from the true values. In curve fitting, this method is not preferred.
4. Possibility of retrieving a negative
Interpolation: interpolation method cannot retrieve negative answers. This is so because it does not allow one to include values outside the range. This limits it from being used in some statistical calculations that require to be extrapolated.
the ability to retrieve negative answers is one characteristic that makes it unique for interpolation. This statistical method allows one to extend the values in the range either forward or backward. This technique of extending values is responsible for attaining the negative values.
5. Values needed to perform each method
Interpolation: as discussed earlier, this technique mainly depends on two known values. It only works where there are two points, and the unknown value is obtained between the two points. For instance, let say we have two points as 4 and 8. Then, our unknown value can be 6.
Extrapolation: this technique only requires one known value. That is, either the upper value or the lower value. The unknown value is then extrapolated from this number either forward or backward.
6. Data limit
Interpolation: this technique has a defined data limit. You are only required to work with data/values within the given range. This may pose a challenge when one wants to introduce value outside the range.
Extrapolation: while in this statistical method, there is no set data limit. Therefore, the user can extrapolate the given value and introduce values outside the range, which may be beneficial when working with values outside the range.
In conclusion, it can be seen that the two technique differs greatly and each method is useful in its different way.

#AtoZChallenge2022: M is for Masons
The A to Z of Conspiracy Theories M
The A to Z of Conspiracy Theories: M is for Masons
This was almost the F post with "Freemasons" but "Flat Earth" won out. But I have a second chance now.
The Masons, or Freemasons, are not so much at the root of many conspiracy theories these days. I can recall a time when they were still considered to be a super-secretive society with clandestine methods and nefarious plans.
These days not so much.
Mind you I don't think the Masons really changed all that much save for being more open with their membership and practices.
Sure they are still basically a club. And they give their own members preferences where they can within the bounds (as far as I can tell) of the law and good taste. Which is nothing more than I would expect. You can pretty much look up everything about them on the Internet.
After seeing the Shriners in many parades it is hard to see them as a world-dominating threat. They went from a secret organization full of hidden motives to something akin to the Loyal Order of Water Buffaloes in my lifetime.
But Masons of the old days are a different story (maybe).
Because so many of the leaders of the world, especially the English speaking world of the 18th to 20th Centuries. Several Presidents, Ambassadors, and even the Royals were Masons. We do know that Washington D.C. (supposedly) was laid out in terms of Masonic designs and the All-Seeing Eye appearing on the back of the $1 bill.
The Masons were often the whispered source of many conspiracy theories. One of the persistent ones is that the Knights Templar would change into the Freemasons when they got to Scotland. Or that there was some intermediate stage where the Templars became the Rosicrucians who became the Masons. It's fun, but not a shred of evidence to support it really. Others state they are connected to or in fact they are the Illuminati.
There is also the claim that the Mason's "Great Architect of the Universe", which they claim is the same as God, is actually something else. This could be Baphomet of the Templar fame or something else like Baal.
One Dollar Bill or something else?
In the world of NIGHT SHIFT, the Masons are NOT the center of any conspiracies. But they DO know about all of them. There is usually a price for this knowledge if the characters are not Masons or some related order. Usually, this price is to obtain some item the Masons want. So to get the information you need to be prepared for some "National Treasure" style shenanigans.
Which of course could be its own kind of fun.
PT Dilloway said...
I think a few years ago I saw billboards advertising for people to join the Masons. They must have been getting hard up for members then.
Pun Isaac said...
I really need to watch Homer the Great (the Stonecutters' episode of The Simpsons) now.
Lisa said...
I'm not sure about the conspiracies related to them, but my late father-in-law was one, and they were certainly an odd bunch. His funeral was very strange, to us anyway. The members wore aprons, and at the end of a prayer they all shouted out something. Boy, did that startle my son, who was just a little boy at the time!
I think my father-in-law liked pretending they were up to secret things. In actuality, where this was, a retirement area, I think they just met and drank.
John Holton said...
I get the sense that a lot of guys join the Masons so they can join the Shriners, at least nowadays. The Catholic Church and the Freemasons are still not speaking to each other...
Arlee Bird said...
My father was in the Masons in the seventies into the early eighties but then quietly separated himself from the group. It was getting too weird for him he said. At my father's funeral in 1990 some of the members of the local Masonic Temple came wearing the aprons and other props and I think they left something over him in a sort of ceremony. I don't remember much about what happened--I was too baffled by the oddness of it all. I had to suppress a laugh is all I can remember now.

Tossing It Out
Jayashree Srivatsan said...
I have not heard of the Masons in this side of the globe. From the comments above , seems like they had quite a lot of specifications around funerals
Damyanti Biswas said...
Wow! I didn't know that.
Charlie Warren said...
I grew up in a very small town. In my teen years - the 1980s - we would check out the local pawn shop for "cool stuff" to buy. Some of the items we bought there included an Atari 2600 console with several games, several classic fantasy series, and the core AD&D 2E books to name a few. One of the things we were most curious about buying was a Freemasonry book - Duncan's Rituals, I think - and finding out what secrets it held. All it basically did was detail some of their ceremonies. We found no world shattering secrets inside. Bummer.

В сети случайно наткнулся на прекрасный олдскульный сайт о погоде в Петрозаводске с еще более прекрасной и олдскульной историей его создания. История захватывает и погружает во времена ностальгии по началу цифровых времен, которые я еще не застал ввиду молодости. Чем-то напоминает записки тестировщика, но без распиздяйства, безответственности и алкоголизма.
Приложу скрин, пока сайт не потерялся в пучине времен, все-таки старенький, уже 20 лет почти. В интернете мало что так долго живет.
On MacBook Pro 2017 Slowness
I have 13′ with touch bar. It’s slow at times. It’s mostly visible when switching between virtual desktops or doing Expose effect. This frame skipping really kills the experience of a fast PC, especially if you switched from a decent Windows 10 machine.
I was suspecting it’s because Intel Iris video card. Then I decided to test other MacBooks. I tried MacBook Pro 2017 15′, iMac, Mac Pro. Guess what. they all are slow. They all skip frames on Expose and virtual desktops switching.
It’s surely not a hardware limitation but somehow a software one. Was it the case in Pre-Sierra MACs?
Scary time
I live in the most scary epoch ever. All historical data, pictures, footages are at my fingertips. Since the era of photography started, humanity have pretty much documented the entire 20th century and uploaded it online. Two clicks away from the curious me.
Every time I see a photo from 19xxs, I try to understand where it stands compared to my lifetime. Ok, this is 1993’s coup on Moscow. Happened during my lifetime, I was very young. These Star Wars behind on stage photos were taken in 197os, when my mom and dad were as young as I am now. 2 lifetimes of mine ago. The actors look so young in the photos but they’re old or dead now. Or look at these WWII soldiers, they all have died of age by now. What about these SR71 pilots, who are practically space pioneers. Most likely all dead of finishing their lives.
Ability to compare and to visualise individual’s history constantly reminds me how really short my active lifespan is. It’s feels like the best years are between my 20s and 40s where half of 20s perished. Time after 40 feels like slowing down and less valuable compared young decades. Youth, energy and beauty seem to be no longer there even for Hollywood start in their 40s. Sadly, there are only 2 young decades when you have your body not declining.
It’s easy not to pay attention to this given that you are not reminded about how short other people lives are. I believe it was easier before the information era, because there was at least less information available for an average individual, thus less reminders. I think it was easier to live your life back then. When the shortness of life was less obvious.
Screen Scraping
I have learned a new term
Screen scraping – analyzing CLI outputs and responses via script connected to the CLI
Process approvals
Some processes have a long cycle of approvals which are delaying the final task execution. The delay is disturbing, while some people might miss an approval which restarts the process from the start. It complicates and delays execution dramatically.
The wrong part is that an approver has no any accountability on giving or not giving an approval.
The correct way to collect approvals is approvals by default. If an approver or substitute fails to review a task and give the approval within a pre-agreed period of time (1 BD is fine for most of the cases), the task is approved by default and the process moves forward. If any damage caused by giving approval by default, the approver who failed to review a task, assumes full accountability for the damage.
This way forces every an approver to be personally interested in giving the approval while keeping process execution quick.

Improved identification of subjects genetically at risk for lung cancer
Institution: University of Southern California
Investigator(s): Ite Offringa, Ph.D.
Award Cycle: 2017 (Cycle 26) Grant #: 26IR-0019 Award: $495,000
Subject Area: Early Diagnosis of Tobacco-Related Cancer
Award Type: High Impact Research Project Award
Initial Award Abstract
While smoking is a known strong risk factor for lung cancer, genetics also plays a role: smokers with a close relative who had lung cancer, have increased risk. To date, no gene that strongly predisposes to lung cancer has been identified, and such a gene may not exist. But it is known that there are many small genetic differences between people, called single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs or “snips”) that each can increase lung cancer risk, for example by 20%. Knowing a person’s risk for a disease is an important component of screening; the higher a person’s risk, the more important it is to be screened for the disease. Spiral computed tomography can be used to screen long term smokers for lung cancer, but non-smokers or short term smokers may not qualify for this screening. However, if we can show that they are at increased risk because they carry certain lung cancer risk SNPs, we can justify screening them. Screen-detected cancers can be removed by non-invasive robotic surgery before the cancer can spread in the body. The problem with using SNPs to determine lung cancer risk is that the SNPs identified to date (called “tag SNPs”) are more like “labels” or tags for a certain region of the genome. The tag SNP itself, or any of the many other SNPs that lie nearby, could be the “functional” SNP – the SNP that actually CAUSES the increased lung cancer risk. Until we know which SNPs are the functional SNPs, we cannot accurately determine a person’s risk for lung cancer, nor can we understand WHY a SNP causes lung cancer risk to be increased. Another problem is that most of the tag SNPs do not lie in the parts of genes that code for proteins. Some SNPs don’t even lie near any genes! Thus, these SNPs cannot increase lung cancer risk by changing a protein. They must work by changing how genes are regulated. Genes are regulated by the proteins bound to their control regions in the DNA. SNPs can change the DNA sequence in these control regions so that they do not properly bind the proteins that normally sit there. Thus we need to first determine where the regulatory elements are in the cells that could become lung cancers, and then whether a SNP disturbs any of those regulatory elements. A SNP that disturbs a regulatory element in lung alveolar epithelial cells can increase the risk for lung adenocarcinoma, while a SNP that disturbs a regulatory element in bronchial epithelial cells can increase the risk for squamous cell lung cancer. Here we aim to identify the actual SNPs that increase the risk for lung cancer and to determine the genes that are affected by these SNPs. Our project builds on exciting data we obtained from a previous pilot project in which we identified candidate functional risk SNPs for lung adenocarcinoma. We determined that these SNPs disrupt functional elements called enhancers, which act like remote controls to regulate genes that can be located far away. Here we will determine which genes are affected by these enhancers and study how these genes can increase lung cancer risk. We will then apply the same approach to identify squamous cell lung cancer risk SNPs that likewise disrupt enhancers, identify the genes affected by these enhancers, and study their role in bronchial cells, which are progenitors of squamous cell lung cancer. Identifying the actual risk SNPs will increase our ability to predict a subject’s risk for lung cancer, so that subjects at greater risk can be screened and steps can be taken to prevent cancer (e.g. quit smoking). Furthermore, understanding HOW these SNPs increase risk can lead to new strategies to limit lung cancer and possibly prevent it.

There are Dangers Of Gambling Addiction
Gambling is essentially the wagering on something valuable and with a risky outcome. It has the primary purpose to win something more. Three components are required to make gambling work that are: risk, consideration as well as the potential of winning a reward or wager. In order for a gambler to be able to be able to win a wager each of these elements should be taken into consideration. The factors mentioned above will boost the odds of winning and decrease the risk.
One of the biggest problems associated with gambling is that it involves risk which increases the risk for developing various types of addictions. There are numerous types of addiction that are associated with gambling, one of which is compulsive gaming. Other factors can make it more likely for people to develop addictions, such as unhealthy eating patterns as well as negative patterns of thinking. Others can lead in the development of addictions to gambling such as anxiety disorders, depression and addiction to drugs. These factors make gambling an easier addiction to fall into, and more difficult to come out of.
Recognize the risk involved in betting and know how to quit. The term “line” at the majority of casinos is the lowest acceptable level of risk that people have the ability to gamble and play. Slots players who are regular gamers tend to be more likely to be a loser since they bet upon luck and not on their capacity to assess the outcomes against a predetermined number. If, for instance, you put two dollars into a game with a payoff of $5 and your bet wins by seven dollars you have just put yourself on the list of gamblers who are regular.
Second, recognize the house advantage. It is the difference between the actual pay-out of the game and the amount that would be awarded to the player winning the game. Be aware that you are not able to look at the bookie when you place bets on roulette or craps. All you are able to see of the game, is the data given by the machine. Additionally, you have an advantage of twenty-two percent “house advantage” when you are dealt a straight, a 4-of-a-5 or straight plus four of a five.
A third reason is that many gamblers do so because they find the experience that gambling provides to be thrilling and enjoyable. People gamble for fun because they are able to feel an “sense of excitement”. People who gamble enjoy testing their luck in potentially risky situations. Gambling in exotic locations can provide excitement that is not found in everyday life for everyone else. The risk of developing addiction to gambling is high whenever you engage with any of these types of activities. Gambling addicts can lose the entire sum of money they have earned as well as be prone to anxiety and depression.
Fourth, gambling could lead to negative mental and emotional reactions. Those who are involved in gambling are unrealistic about what they could achieve, and don’t take the reality into account. Without considering the possible consequences, they believe they can make quick and easy money using a machine. If the bets they make don’t pay out, they’re quick to blame other people. Additionally, some individuals find it difficult to accept the reality of things and be convinced of anything, even the most unbelievable. These people are unable to earn money from gambling because they live in a fantasy world.
Five, there’s an inverse relationship between use of drugs and alcoholism and the growth of gambling addictions. The addiction to gambling is often due to people who been influenced by alcohol and other drugs. People who are addicted to gambling are often prostitutes and even take up dead-end work if they cannot stop their behaviors.
Gamblers have often a hard time breaking their addiction. Many times gamblers develop addictions that can take several months or even years to conquer. Gamblers who have fallen prey to serious gambling addictions must seek treatment. It will help ensure they get the expert guidance they require to get over their addiction to gambling.

Sitar is a plucked string instrument common to Indian classical music, in the Hindustani classical traditions (specific to northern India). It is fairly a complicated musical instrument. It has movable frets having over 20 strings. It is played with a pick called mezrab. It is perhaps the most popular stringed instruments in India. Sitar is now synonymous with India and Indian culture in the entire world. The origin of Sitar is believed to be from Persia (Iran) and the word meaning is three strings. However its real history is in controversy. It flourished in the 16th and 17th centuries and arrived at its present form in the 18th century Mughal period. It is clear that the present form of Sitar had taken on its present form by the mid-nineteenth century. Therefore, it is a hybrid of Persian and Indian lutes, and is less than three centuries old. There is also a vague information that the sitar may have been developed from the Kachappi Veena.
Sitar has two layers of strings which are made of steel, brass and copper. 13 steel strings on the bottom layer are known as taraf (meaning joy or excitement). They resonate when the strings on the main bridge are plucked. The top layer contains seven strings which are used to create the melody and drone. Two of the three bridges anchor two of the three chikari (drone) strings that serve to extend notes and/or punctuate the rhythm. The remaining five strings lie on a bridge that spans the width of the neck. All seven strings converge, in a parallel manner, on the main bridge that sits on the gourd section. Sitar has three popular modern styles; the two popular styles are the “gayaki style” (or Vilayat Khan style) and the full decorated “instrumental style” (also represented as Ravi Shankar style).Pundit Ravi Shankar; the sitar Maestro
This music gained western attention with the touring and popularisation by the Sitar Maestro Vilayat Khan (1950s) and Ravi Shankar (1960s along with his musical partner on Tabla Alla Rakha).
Balram Pathak, Enayat Khan, Imdad Khan, Imrat Khan, Manilal Nag, Nikhil Bannerjee, Rais Khan, Ravi Shankar, Vilayat Khan Budhaditya Mukherjee, Debu Choudhury, Deepak Choudhury Irshad Khan, Krishna Bhaft, Nishat Khan, Shahid Parvez, and Shujat Khan are some of the prominent names attached to sitar.

Iranian Institute for Training and Research
• Sep 07, 2022
When you hear Iran what do you imagine? To most people, Iran is one of the world’s oil giants. Oil reserves are estimated at 7.5 billion tons. However, only a few people know that Iran is the center of one of the most ancient civilizations in the world - Elam. Everyone would wonder why this land has been like a magnet for people for millennia. The main reason lies precisely in the country’s natural wealth and large deposits of minerals. In addition to its significant oil reserves, Iran also boasts large reserves of natural gas (6,000 billion cubic meters), coal, and various types of ores. But what is the function of the Iranian Institute for Training and Research and how does it fit into this picture?
Iron Ore
The Iranian Institute for Training and Research was established in 1989 under the Ministry of Mines and Metals as the government realized that for a country with such wealth, the development of the primary sector of the economy is extremely important. It is necessary to constantly improve the methods of extraction and processing of minerals, as well as to train personnel to meet the needs of the market. The Iranian Institute for Training and Research is the only institution in Iran that is active in the field of mining and applied education in this field.
The research institute brings together the best specialists in Iran in the fields of geology and mining, and gemmology. The institution also has proven chemists, mechanics, engineers, managers, and linguists to cover all the needs of the sector and prepare future employees in the best possible way to work for the benefit of the economy. Let’s see what courses the institute offers.
Geology and Mining
The Geology and Mining course focuses on coal, its formation process, classification features, properties, and uses. Through this course, you will also learn what mineral deposits there are in the territory of Iran, as well as where they are located. During the course, you will
1. practise creating mining exploration plans,
2. and learn about legal restrictions in the sector and what documentation is required to start mining.
If precious stones attract you, you can get a lot of useful information with the gemmology course. Gemstones are naturally occurring crystals which have apparent transparency. According to the International Mineralogical Association, 4,800 types of minerals are known in the world, with only 150 of which forming crystals of sufficient size to be polished. During the course, you will
1. learn about the different types of gemstones and where they are found,
2. how to classify and assess their value,
3. and what processing they go through before they reach the market.
Through this course, you will gain a basic knowledge of the mining industry. If you want to specialize in a specific field closely related to the extraction of minerals, you can choose from five options.
1. What is earthing and how is it done?
2. How to optimize energy consumption?
3. What tools are used and which of them are the most precise
4. Fundamentals of Robotics
1. How are mechanical failures diagnosed?
2. Familiarizing with new tools
3. Advanced hydraulics
4. Structure and principles of operation of marine diesel engines and auxiliary machinery
1. Nature and application of hydraulic fluids
2. Biological treatment of industrial wastewater
3. Formation of minerals
4. Bioinformatics
1. Ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy
2. Heat treatment of steel shafts
3. Secondary metallurgical degassing process
4. Advanced casting processes
Occupational safety
1. The safety principles of low voltage electricity
2. Fire extinguishing equipment and operations
3. Physical factors and measurement methods of the work environment
4. Specifics of land mine work and potential hazards

Events over the last few days have made me re-visit this topic again. The X Factors are the unforeseen events that can happen that make it harder to turn a profit at this sport.
As you know, it's a hard enough battle as it is without the gambling gods frowning upon us from great heights!
I am "live" on the internet for a lot of the day. Some punters are far more addicted than me - especially those that "progression" bet or use a staking plan like Cascade 10 that has each bet dependant on the result of the previous investment and the permutations that apply.
One of the greatest hazards of being an internet punter is the very technology upon which it is based. Now the ISP I use is usually exceptionally reliable but the last few weeks they've had a "bad run" - all sorts of things seem to have happened which has impacted upon their capacity to provide their usual excellent level of service.
None of it has been their fault - mother nature, server failures, interstate connection losses (not good when you're at the very end of the line in Tasmania!), extended power losses - all sorts of stuff.
So what are the options if this happens to you? If it happens on a regular basis either a) change providers or b) live with it. It just becomes a part of the mountain of odds you have to beat to come out in front in the long term.
The drama involved in changing providers, especially if you are in business, is unacceptable as your email addresses become redundant unless you then fiddle around with e-mail forwarders. And what if the ISP you switch to is even more unreliable than the people you left? Do you do it all again? If you've set up email forwarders do you them forward the forwarded.......oh, good grief!
The other day in our area we had a power outage - again, an unusual event. Happens every blue moon and then maybe even less. What a disaster - no TV, no internet, not even hot water to have a cup of coffee. How on earth did our ancestors live in such a horrid unfriendly world?
Luckily the power outage happened around 5.30 when most of the punting activity for the day had ceased but what if it had been earlier and when I may have been involved in some tricky staking plan based calculations?
It's impractical to think that you can just quickly pack up and whiz down to the tote and pick up where you left off. For starters that happens to be about two races down the road and I rarely have the cash to punt up instantly at the point a progression plan may have left me dangling. And if you are playing on a betting exchange, like Betfair, the chances of access from another part of town are probably just about zero.
Inevitably, when the power black outs and internet outages occur you can be assured the next race just happened to be the 8/1 winner that makes the difference between a poor week and a good week arrives, or the 2's on pop you wanted to lay misses the start by 5 lengths and runs second last.
It's just the way it is. There's no point complaining about it and raging on like an imbecile. That achieves nothing and probably upsets your whole reasoned approach when things do get back to normal. Umm - you do have a reasoned approach to all this don't you? Don't, as poker players say, go on tilt when things do go wrong. That is guaranteed to cost you a lot!
So what is the solution? There is none. Accept it as part of the game and if you are working to an overall 6% to 7% long term statistical advantage maybe reduce that by 1% when you are looking at your long term future - just to be on the "safe" side for those times when the gambling gods turn against you!

What is a Woman? – The American Conservative
A woman, as it turns out, is actually a very difficult thing to define. Contra savvy conservative pundits, the meaning doesn’t just evade gender studies majors at Harvard but also straight white men, middle class women, and backwoods hillbillies. And not simply because such people hesitate to give the crass answer.
What progressives have identified—whether or not they recognize it—is that to be a woman means something more than mere chromosomes, and more than just the color pink. A woman is no less than her biology, certainly; but she is just as certainly more. Some of her differences are physical, but many are social, emotional, and psychological. Discovering them has been the subject of some of the greatest art, poetry, music, and novels of the last two thousand years, and still many verses remain to be teased out.
While conservatives are right to ask what makes a woman, they have failed to provide a complete answer. Even intelligent Christians have left the answer at the feet of such authorities as science textbooks, as though defining male and female were no more important a task than defining a mitochondria, with no more serious implications for men’s souls. When we leave the definition writing to such supposedly disinterested parties, what we get is not a lack of bias, but a lack of any meaningful definition. Especially as doctors discover new ways to diminish the physical differences between men and women, the biological definition is increasingly threatened.
What now? For starters, the Associated Press is issuing new guidance on how to refer to men and women who believe they are of the opposite sex: For the sake of greater clarity, they say, a man dressed like a woman should simply be called a woman, and vice versa. Terms like “biological sex” are extremist wrongthink; “transgender” is only an adjective, never a noun; and it’s just far too clunky to include said adjective unless transgender issues are the focus of the story. To say someone is a woman is just neater than to say he identifies as a woman.
Of course, this is only the next logical step for the secularists whose religious texts include “I think I am a woman, therefore I am.” If feeling intrinsically that you must be a woman makes you a woman, no questions asked, then we should follow through and call you a woman, no qualifications needed. It is perfectly coherent. For the rest of us, meanwhile, it presents a real problem. One can imagine a slate of scenarios in which not knowing the true sex of a person would have serious consequences (such as criminal investigations, to which the transgender community contributes an unfortunate quotient).
We know how we got here, and it is not merely because the left’s best and brightest are not the sharpest tools in the toolbox. We surrendered the serious task of raising men and women to secular sex-ed and science classrooms, and it shows. High school students learned that men have one form of sexual organ and women have another—nothing more. It’s no wonder they swallow their dislike for the changing definition, since they were provided no clear alternative with which to refute it. It’s no wonder men are dressing up in makeup and young women are afraid of their own femininity in unprecedented levels. Who was there to teach them the beauty of womanhood, to see the strength in being different from the masculine? Certainly not biology textbooks.

It should go without saying that the AP has achieved not more clarity, but less. To communicate means to “share”; it is the same word from which we get “communion,” the bonding of the Church through the shared body and blood of Christ. What happens when journalists say a man is a woman, but your backwards uncle and his whole small town say he is not? Rather than serving as a bond between people, our words are sowing division. We appear to use the same word, but we do not mean the same thing. Our language has become a lie.
It is not enough for language merely to be shared, of course. Words correspond to an objective reality, something intrinsic and eternal in each created thing that the words we use only recognize. Language does not create, but names creation, and in order to name creation rightly, you must know what each creature is. You must know what it means to be a woman—chromosomes, feminine intuition, and all.
So here we are, disagreeing not only on what it means to be a woman but also on who gets to define it: something, or Someone eternal? Democracy? Or those who Think Rightly? It’s amusing, in a dark sort of way, that after so many years of progress, such advancements in technology and unprecedented levels of global communication, we have lost the pieces that formed the very foundation on which progress was built. Who cares if we have microchips and semiconductors if we don’t know what it means to be women, and to be men, and why our differences are both inherent and absolutely vital? Of what worth are our human rights crusades if being human is nothing more than an X or a Y on your birth certificate, changeable or not? It’s as though we reached the top of the tower, and before God could curse our tongues, we found everyone around us was already babbling.

Cobra Kai season three launches on Netflix
Cobra Kai” is a Netflix series that came out in 2018. It’s based on the “Karate Kid” trilogy with the show telling the past and present story of Daniel Larusso featuring his long time rival Johnny Lawrence.
In season one, Johnny and Danny reunite after 30 years. As suspected there is tension between them. Johnny then meets a kid named Miguel Diaz living in the same apartment complex as him and begins to teach him karate. During this time we come to find out Lawrence has a son named Robby, who in a twist of events starts working for Larusso, who then starts to train him.
In season two, Larusso opens up his own dojo called Miyagi-Do all while Lawrence is starting to take “Cobra Kai “in a different direction. The rivalry between Larusso and Lawrence continues through season two as they show off their Dojos and the heat builds up between their students, leading to a dramatic ending of season two.
In season three, After the dramatic ending in season two, the dueling Dojos keep the rival going trying any way to get revenge on each other. While in the middle of the drama Larusso takes a trip to save his failing business and to try and find himself, his journey takes him to Okinawa where he runs into old faces from the past.
All three seasons had their fair share of 80s music such guns and roses. That brought nostalgia from the originals. Some of the acting seems a little cheesy but it fits the show well. The seriousness and humor of it will keep you interested and leave you wanting more.
I love the storyline of Cobra Kai and how they show past memories, as well as how they have guest appearances. I like where they are headed with the show. The dedication they have for Cobra Kai makes it more realistic. I cannot wait for the 4th season, I definitely recommend watching this especially if you have seen the karate movies.

Inside Malaco Records, 'The Last Soul Company'
Hari Sreenivasan: As a small, mostly unheard of independent record label based --not in New York or Los Angeles -- but in Jackson, Mississippi; Malaco Records has managed to outlast major record label competitors like Motown, Stax and Chess records. Referred to as "the last soul company," it's been home to multiple recording artists and songwriters and has a catalog of original recordings and music copyrights, numbering into the thousands.
Newshour weekend's Christopher Booker brings us the unlikely and long-lasting story of Malaco Records.
Christopher Booker: From soul to blues to gospel, Jackson, Mississippi's Malaco Music Group has seen and done it all. Now after over 50 years, the story of one of America's oldest, surviving independent music companies is being told.
Christopher Booker: Do you think the general population, the general music fan knows of and by extension appreciates Malaco's contribution?
Rob Bowman: No, absolutely not.
Christopher Booker: Rob Bowman is the author of 'The Last Soul Company: The Malaco Records Story."
Rob Bowman: Mainstream America doesn't have a clue what Malaco is, but for older Black soul-blues fans, Malaco is associated with an incredible run.
Christopher Booker: A run that started in the 1960's. Tommy Couch was one of the founders.
Tommy Couch Sr: In the early stages, we would try to make a record like a lot of other independent producers and studios, and we would rush to New York or L.A. Or somewhere and try to lease it to a major. In a way, we really started was after several trips, we could get nobody interested, so we had to put these records at ourselves.
Christopher Booker: Malaco's early days were lean, but early in the 1970s their studio recorded two big songs -- King Floyd's 'Groove me' -- released on Malaco's Chimneyville label, and Jean Knight's 'Mr. Big stuff,' released by nearby on Stax. Rather unbelievably given Malaco's longevity, the company and their labels never produced a number one radio hit in the pop music world. Only three of their songs cracked the top 50, the last one came from Dorothy Moore in 1976. But year after year Malaco has survived - even as so many shut their doors.
Rob Bowman: I mean everyone thinks of Motown, Chess, Atlantic, Stax, glorious labels, every one of them to, you know, many more hit records and Malaco, but none of them survived as long. They all ceased to be living entities and they all stopped being independent, Malaco is independent, 52 years straight.
Christopher Booker: Integral to their survival, has been an ability to adapt. While it may have started with a quest for hits on the pop charts, this is not where the label ended up. Their move to a genre known as Soul Blues and more importantly, Gospel is why Malaco is still here. In the world of Gospel music, there is nothing larger than Malaco - whether through their own recordings or acquisitions. Their 1986 acquisition of the Savoy catalog making Malaco the largest gospel label in the world.
Tommy Couch Sr.: When you think about the Black church, you got to think about the music of the black church and we're right at the top of that list when you look at the music. I mean, Reverend James Cleveland, Mahalia Jackson, so there's a lot of history throughout the years that, you know, we have and we're very proud of.
Rob Bowman: Malaco has blown the roof off gospel sales a few times, Mississippi Mass Choir's first album may have been the largest selling gospel album in history.
Christopher Booker: Released in 1989, the Mississippi Mass Choir's debut became the number 1 spiritual album in the country and spent 45 weeks on the Billboard charts, but like every other corner of the music industry, the market for gospel music has changed. Much of Malaco's business is now conducted online and through streaming platforms. They have spent recent years digitizing and uploading all of their recordings.
Rob Bowman: From the most obscure track that sold virtually nothing whenever it was released, and the idea was even if it generated $20 in streaming royalties in the year, you multiply that by tens of thousands of tracks, you can survive.
Christopher Booker: This archive created another benefit. Its increased the number of licensing and sampling deals. In recent years Malaco recordings have been sampled on songs by Kanye West, Drake, DJ Khaled, Snoop Dogg and Cardi B. But Malaco has been sampled for years, starting with started where so much of hip-hop started with Grandmaster flash.
Rob Bowman: They had to sue to get paid on that. But Grandmaster Flash recorded a song that he called "Freedom" and actually erotically sampled a song by a Malaco group called Freedom.
Rob Bowman: And of course, that was back in the wild west days of sampling in the early Eighties where nobody cleared anything and if you got sued, maybe you paid something and Malaco was right on top of it, but that was the first sample later on. People like Celine Dion sample Reverend James Cleveland songs. Pusha T has sampled Malaco stuff and one of the really great ones was Shaggy Boombastic, one of the biggest hits the Nineties and he's sampling a King Floyd song, "Baby, Let Me Kiss You."
Christopher Booker: What do you think the story of Malaco and its longevity says about the music industry?
Rob Bowman: Well, it says the music industry is much like capitalism in general. There are multi-levels, multi-tiers that which one can play the game. It operates the way companies operated 40, 50, 60 years ago. And I'm talking about small companies. But it's not like these old geezers who don't know what's going on. They're incredibly smart and have adapted to the industry, but they never sold to anybody, they are completely independent. They have nobody's expectations except their own.

Which accounts normally have debit balances?
The terms originated from the Latin terms «debere» or «debitum» which means «what is due», and «credere» or «creditum» which means «something entrusted or loaned».
Which accounts normally have debit balances?
Most expense transactions have either a cash debit or credit entry. Let’s consider a few examples of entries to these asset accounts. A list of all accounts, showing the title and balance of each account, used to prove that the sum of the debits equals the sum of the credits. To record the payment of rent expense, an accountant would debit Cash; credit Rent Expense.
General ledgers
An accounting error is an error in an accounting entry that was not intentional, and when spotted is immediately fixed. This is typically one of the last things to do before financial statements are completed.
Is sales a debit or credit?
Sales are recorded as a credit because the offsetting side of the journal entry is a debit – usually to either the cash or accounts receivable account. In essence, the debit increases one of the asset accounts, while the credit increases shareholders' equity.
In the world of double-entry bookkeeping, every debit to one account must be matched to a credit somewhere else. For example, Patriot Software says, suppose you order $6,700 worth of inventory on credit. You debit Inventory for that amount and make a matching credit to Accounts Payable.
How do you know if a account is debit or credit?
These records and the financial data they contain can help accountants spot unusual, erroneous or fraudulent transactions. Other GL accounts summarize transactions for asset categories, such as physical plants and equipment, and liabilities, such as accounts payable, notes or loans.
Which accounts normally have debit balances?
If revenues exceed expenses then net income is positive and a credit balance. If expenses exceed revenues, then net income is negative and has a debit balance. We will now continue from where we left off intopic 2.2.In order for us to generate a trial balance we first need to balance off the ledger accounts. Balancing the accounts simply means that both the debit and credit side of each account should be equal. Personal accounts are liabilities and owners’ equity and represent people and entities that have invested in the business.
All those account types increase with debits or left side entries. Conversely, a decrease to any of those accounts is a credit or right side entry. On the other hand, increases in revenue, liability or equity accounts are credits or right side entries, and decreases are left side entries or debits. If another transaction involves payment of $500 in cash, the journal entry would have a credit to the cash account of $500 because cash is being reduced. In effect, a debit increases an expense account in the income statement, and a credit decreases it. Income has a normal credit balance since it increases capital.
It serves as a check to ensure that for every transaction, a debit recorded in one ledger account has been matched with a credit in another. Typically, the balance sheet accounts carry assets with debit balances, and liabilities as credit balances. These are static figures and reflect the company’s financial position at a specific point in time. Sales are recorded as a credit because the offsetting side of the journal entry is a debit https://accounting-services.net/ – usually to either the cash or accounts receivable account. In essence, the debit increases one of the asset accounts, while the credit increases shareholders’ equity. The new balance for the cash account, after the net change from the transaction, will then be reflected in the balance category. However, in recent decades they have been automated using enterprise accounting software and in enterprise resource planning applications.
Which accounts normally have debit balances?
Sub-ledgers are used when a particular account has a lot of activity. Debit balances and credit balancespost in separate columns. This use of the terms can be counter-intuitive to people unfamiliar with bookkeeping concepts, who may always think of a credit as an increase and a debit as a decrease. This is because most people typically only see their personal bank accounts and billing statements (e.g., from a utility). A depositor’s bank account is actually a Liability to the bank, because the bank legally owes the money to the depositor.

Alternatively, the bank will increase the account balance to zero via an overdraft arrangement. AccountsDebitAssets+Expenses+Liability–Equity–Income–To understand a type of transaction that would be labeled on the debit side of an account we can look at Bob’s Barber Shop. Bob sells hair gel to a customer for $45 and gets paid in cash. Looking at the chart above we can tell that assets will increase by debiting it. You’d record this $45 increase of cash with a debit in the asset account of Bob’s books.
• The amount received by X Company from Partner B increased the Cash account by $150,000 and also increased the Equity amount of Partner B by $150,000.
• The same is true for owners’ equity, but it contains net income that needs a little more explanation, which we’ll do in the next section.
• But we also want to understand why a debit increases the balance of some accounts and decreases the balance of others, and more.
Put simply, on-balance sheet items are items that are recorded on a company’s balance sheet. Off-balance sheet items are not recorded on a company’s balance sheet. Every business must strive to maintain accurate accounting records to generate reliable financial statements. The chart of accounts is a list of all of the accounts used to record transactions. Revenue Which accounts normally have debit balances? and expense accounts do not have a brought down balance, since they are closed off and the figure transferred to the income statement. Other types of accounts use a balance brought down in order to determine the opening balance of the account in the subsequent trading period. A trial balance is a list of all the balances in the nominal ledger accounts.
An example of these accounts is the treasury stock account. In double-entry bookkeeping, expenses are recorded as a debit to an expense account and a credit to either an asset account or a liability account, which are balance sheet accounts. Liabilities, revenues and sales, gains, and owner equity and stockholders’ equity accounts normally have credit balances. Asset accounts normally have debit balances, while liabilities and capital normally have credit balances. Income has a normal credit balance since it increases capital . On the other hand, expenses and withdrawals decrease capital, hence they normally have debit balances. The complete accounting equation based on the modern approach is very easy to remember if you focus on Assets, Expenses, Costs, Dividends .
Which of the following account will have debit balance in trial balance?
Hence cash account is always have the debit balance and this will be shown as debit in trial balance.

Is Ketogenic diet really effective for weight loss?
Is Ketogenic diet really effective for weight loss?
The ketogenic diet (or keto diet) is generally a low carb, high fat diet with many health benefits. Several studies indicate that this type of diet can help you lose weight and improve your health. Diets high in ketones may even protect against diabetes, cancer, epilepsy, and Alzheimer’s.
What is a Ketogenic diet?
Ketogenic diets are low-carb diets (such as the Atkins diet). The goal is to get more calories from protein and fat and less from carbohydrates. The carbs that are easy to digest, like sugar, soda, pastries, and white bread, are the ones you cut back the most on.
By reducing carbohydrate intake drastically, fat is replaced. When you reduce carbs, your body enters a state called ketosis. As a result, your body burns fat extremely efficiently for energy. Additionally, it converts fat into ketones in the liver, which can supply energy to the brain. Diabetes and insulin levels can be reduced significantly by ketogenic diets. In addition, the increase in ketones has some health benefits.
Types of ketogenic diet.
The type of ketogenic diet is generally classified on the bases of ratio between diet followed for respective days with intake of nutrient content.
The information demonstrated above is represented by standard and high proteion keto diet study. During a cyclical ketogenic diet, or targeted ketogenic diet, a bodybuilder or athlete can lose weight while gaining muscle.
How does Ketogenic diet works?
When you consume less than 50 grams of carbohydrates a day, your body eventually runs out of fuel (blood sugar) that it can use. It usually takes three to four days. Your body will then break down protein and fat for energy, which can lead to weight loss. This is known as ketosis. Despite the fact that the ketogenic diet targets weight loss rather than health, it should be noted that it is a short-term diet.
Who uses Ketogenic diet?
Generally, ketogenic diet is carried out by people who intend to loose weight and get their body in shape. Obese and fat people are major part of this health practise. However, ketogenic diet is a kind of diet that not only help with fatloss but also help in improving several disordered medical condition of a human body.
This practise is likely to improve several condition such as epilepsy, brain disease, heart disease, acne, cancer, diabetes, other nervous system diseases, and more. However, more research on these field are necessary before adopting.
Side effects
Although ketogenic diet is totally safe for most of the people, an individual may experience some initial side effects which is caused while your body adapts to the schedule. Several cases of side effects have been reported by the practising individuals but those effects can hardly last for no more than few days. Following are some of the common and uncommon side effects observed during ketogenic diet initial days.
• Vomiting
• constipation
• nausea
• diarrhea
• disconfort in digestion
• low energy and mental health
• issue while sleeping
• increase in hunger
• reduction in physical performance, etc.
An individul can minimize these temporary side effects by linearly decreasing the carb intake in their diet rather than sudden absence. This will help the body to adapt the diet and lifestyle more smoothly with minimal side effects.
Cautions and Contraindications
In case of pancreatitis, liver failure, fat metabolism disorders, primary carnitine deficiency, carnitine palmitoyltransferase deficiency, carnitine translocase deficiency, porphyrias, or pyruvate kinase deficiency, the ketogenic diet is contraindicated. Keto diets rarely cause false positive breath alcohol tests.
A false positive alcohol breath test can occur when acetone in the body is converted to isopropanol by hepatic alcohol dehydrogenase because ketonemia causes acetone to be reduced in the body to isopropanol.

Hyperlocal Political Campaigns: How OOH Can Take Your Mid-Term Campaigns to the Next Level
by Valerie Carboni
political campaigns
The 2022 mid-term elections are just around the corner, and it’s another season you’ve got to convince your local citizens of your platform. With dynamics expected to shift in both houses, stakes are high, and you can expect a close contest on most issues. Therefore, you don’t have any room to make mistakes. Your political campaigns must be strategic, intelligent, and convincing.
Unfortunately, only one side can win; that must be yours. To make this happen, you have to work on a deliberate and strategic campaign strategy to reach every voter and tell your story. It’s the only way you can convince them to vote for your transformative ideas. That’s why you need to campaign hyper locally.
What is Hyperlocal Campaign Look Like?
Over the years, most agencies have been using much of their resources and time trying to run a state-wide campaign strategy. These strategies are not only scanty in detail, but they’ve not had a specific voter target. Although some have worked, it’s essential to indicate that events have overtaken them.
Today, hyperlocal campaigns are the way to go when looking to create an impression in a specific voter location. Trends show that 88% of the 2022 political advertising budget will be directed toward local political offices. With such a huge budget and time deliberately being driven towards local and in-state races, you cannot afford to be generic and simplistic in your political strategy.
How Can You Localize Your Political Campaigns this Season?
As highlighted above, political campaigns will not only be localized but very competitive this season. Therefore, you’ve to use everything that gives you an edge over your competitors. Incorporating new campaign techniques and tactics could make all the difference. Wrapify can help you deliver shrewd out-of-home advertising that will give you an edge through the following approaches.
1. Retarget Your Political Campaigns
As highlighted above, one of the most significant advantages of using a hyperlocal political advertising strategy is that you can retarget your campaigns.
With a Wrapify campaign, you can now direct your message to voters who live or work near the district you’re contesting in. This way, you can better focus your message and appeal to the needs of a particular voter. Then comes the real magic. The audience exposed to these campaigns in real life, can then be uploaded to your DSP and retsrgeted via digital, native, and CTV ads.
This means you can adjust and change your message as you get feedback from the field. For instance, if you realize that most of your targeted voters are more concerned about healthcare, you can quickly change your message and start addressing their needs.
2. Customize Your Vehicle Wraps
With Wrapify, you have the freedom to customize your vehicle wraps according to the demographics of your targeted voters. This becomes especially important when you are trying to sell a message vs. a person. For high-stakes propositions, like Prop 22 in California’s 2020 election, having a clear, strong message becomes even more necessary.
The good thing is that Wrapify will work with you to ensure that your message stands out and resonates with your targeted voters.

Drug dependence vs addiction
Drug dependence vs addiction
Posted At: December 3, 2021 9:29 AMViews: 67Category: Health and Fitness
People use both the terms “dependence” and “addiction” mutually. They are unaware about the fact that drug dependence cannot be regarded as drug addiction. They have separate meaning for people who struggle with drug use. Drug dependence usually occurs when drugs are needed to function and carry out our daily routine whereas addiction can happen without being dependent on drugs. It is possible to have one without the other. For instance, one can be addicted to a drug without having physical dependent on it.
Drug Dependence
Drug dependence is a condition being physically dependent on any kind of substance. We usually feel like drugs play an integral part in our daily life. It tends to increase gradually day after day. Dependence on drugs will harm physically, mentally and spiritually. The effect of drug dependence drags many problems like economical, social and psychological into the abuser’s life. It cannot be cured but it can be controlled. Its effective treatment includes wide range of multidisciplinary approaches including education, health, community, family and social welfare. It should all be incorporated together for better output.
Drug Addiction
Drug addiction is a health condition where people have hefty craving towards certain substances. Craving usually occurs due to the physical changes in our brain resulted by the frequent use of drugs. It can also be classified as a disease which is rooted inside the addict’s brain. It is a process of use, abuse and misuse of drugs. The trained staffs at drug rehabilitation centers can help to control addiction through different kinds of therapies designed to help against cravings and can also aid in reversing the negative effects of drugs on our brain. Treatment for mental health condition is also necessary which are linked to bipolar disorder and addiction.

How is the Ulefone Armor 3 on a daily basis?
Ulefone knows that users are becoming more demanding. Creating a very resistant mobile is no longer enough. Everyone needs a powerful smartphone and the firm wants to show us, in a video, how fast the Armor 3.
It is clear that the mobile is resistant. Here you can see how it survives being hit by a car but… is it also a good mobile for day to day?
Ulefone Armor 3, a fast mobile for apps and games
Don’t worry if you need a mobile that is fast with apps and games, this Ulefone Armor 3 does what it promises. What’s more, you will have no problem playing high-quality video, browsing the web, using Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, Spotify, etc.
You can also play at full speed in PUBG Mobile, PES 2018 and very demanding titles like the classic Arena of Valor, the closest thing to LoL for Android. You will have no problem with any type of application. This is a great peace of mind, because you will not need to have a second mobile for day to day.
Hardware up to what anyone may need
We already know that it is not the typical mobile for everyone, because it has a more aggressive design. However, this gives you a high resistance against falls and all kinds of damage. The mobile can survive in very extreme conditions.
In terms of performance and photographic quality, most users will be very happy with it, since there are no gaps in this section:
To all this we must add some details such as facial recognition, the fingerprint sensor, support for all 4G bands worldwide, NFC compatible with Google Pay, Android 8.1 Oreo with native interface. What more could you need?
Well yes, there is even a version with a Integrated Real Walkie Talkie, the Armor 3T. The latter can already be obtained, for a little more, through Indiegogo.

How Many Eggs Can an American Eel Lay in A Year?
Ever wondered how many eggs an American Eel lay each year?
I set out to find the facts and figures. Read my blog post about the full life of the American eel here.
American eels live an extreme example of a full circle life: they’re born in the Atlantic, live for five to twenty years in freshwater, and then venture back out to the ocean to breed and perish. During their entire lives, this is the only time American eels will spawn.
How Many Eggs Can an American Eel Lay in a Year?
Female American eels can carry upwards of 20 to 30 million eggs. Eels only breed once in their life, migrating to the Sargasso Sea where they then spawn and presumably die.
Reproduction and laying eggs of eels has long been a mystery.
No one has ever witnessed American eels spawning, and no one knows what happens to the eels afterward.
But, in recent years, researchers have been starting to put together a picture of what happens in the sea.
Want to know how much an American Eel weigh?
Table of Contents
So, How Many Eggs Can an American Eel Lay in a Year?
Some estimates state that female eels release 4 million eggs once they return to the Sargasso Sea, while others put the number around 20 to 30 million fertilized eggs.
The older and longer the female, the more eggs she can carry.
The largest and most fertile of females reaching the higher egg estimates, typically are reported to come out of inland Canada.
A 2018 article in the journal Marine and Coastal Fisheries took a stab at estimating how many eggs American eels carried, also known as their fecundity, from four different studies.
These sampled female American eels were found to be carrying between 0.5 to 22 million eggs.
Generally, short females early in their migratory route have fewer eggs.
Things that can lead to female eels carrying more eggs include:
• The eel’s body length.
• How far along in her migratory route she is.
Once eggs are laid, it’s hard to know what exactly happens next.
Much of what happens to eels in the open ocean is still largely a mystery.
We know that the eggs hatch and the larvae find their way to freshwater, and it’s believed that, after their long journey, the adults pass away.
How do American Eels Reproduce?
When an American eel reaches reproductive maturity, their body undergoes dramatic physical changes to transform it from bottom dwellers in rivers to ocean fish.
American eels will stop eating entirely and rely on fat reserves to make the long journey.
When ready to spawn, the physical changes eels undergo are:
• Degeneration of their gut
• Their eyes growing in size
• More blood vessels in their swim bladders
• An increase in fat reserves
Male American eels reach sexual maturity sooner in life, usually when around five to ten years old, and begin their migration to the Sargasso Sea.
Female eels live for longer before reaching maturity, the largest going for over twenty years before beginning their migration.
American eels can travel thousands of kilometers in this migration to their breeding grounds.
One eel was tracked by researchers all the way from Nova Scotia to the Sargasso Sea, traveling roughly 2,400 km in 45 days.
Once American eels reach the Sargasso Sea, however, the rest is still a mystery.
No researcher has ever observed American eels spawning in the wild.
It’s currently believed that, after spawning, American eels die.
Based on where larvae are found on the eastern seaboard, researchers have built models to try and simulate how the larva make it to shore.
Their models suggest that at least a little bit of swimming is involved, or else we wouldn’t see such a wide spread of larvae across so much of eastern North America.
Despite the lack of attention American eels may get, they live a life fit for a fable.
They live their whole lives before their bodies begin to change for the migration to spawn. And after traveling thousands of kilometers to the same sea that they were born in, they breed and vanish.
American Eel
American eels (Anguilla rostrata) are a catadromous fish, meaning they spend most of their lives in freshwater before migrating to the sea to breed. Reproduction of American eels in the wild, however, has proven to be an elusive area.
It has long been believed that American eels spawn in the Sargasso Sea, a region of the North Atlantic Ocean bounded by the Gulf Stream, North Atlantic Current, North Atlantic Equatorial Current, and Canary Current.
Nice to know: How Many Volts Does an Electric Eel Have?
The Sargasso Sea was proposed as the single spawning area of American eels as far back as 1904, but it took until 2015 for researchers to finally track an adult eel along its migratory route.
By tagging eels with pop-up satellite archival tags, or PSATs, researchers from the Université Laval in Québec and Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia tracked migrating American eels.
While it has now been confirmed that an adult American eel did travel to the Sargasso Sea, there still hasn’t been any observed egg laying in the wild. Whatever effect environmental changes may have on their spawning and reproduction is unclear.
Hatched larvae drift and swim to the continental shelf, where they then leave the ocean and transition to living in brackish water and freshwater.
American eels land in most corners of the Atlantic coastline, where their adaptability helps it survive in so many diverse habitats.
American eels go through a cycle of transformations. In freshwater, American eels metamorphose through different life stages where they exhibit different physical characteristics.
The life stages of American eels:
• Eggs
• Leptocephali (larva)
• Glass Eels
• Elvers
• Yellow eels
• Silver eels
Males tend to mature and return to the Sargasso Sea within five to ten years, while females can live in freshwater and brackish water for twenty years before migrating to the sea.
One mature female eel recorded in Nova Scotia lived to age 43.
Eels kept in aquariums will typically live around ten years.
Interestingly, eels are sexually undifferentiated as larvae and glass eels. It isn’t until they’re already in freshwater that they begin to differentiate into males in females.
Often, eels that grow quickly as glass eels tend to become males while eels that grow slowly at the start of their lives develop as females.
The environment a glass eel experiences seems to largely influence the sex it’ll develop into.
When in aquaculture, glass eels usually differentiate into males. It’s suspected that this is because of stress and cortisol levels.
Females tend to be the ones to venture further inland, swimming upstream, and can grow to five feet in length. Males usually stay in estuarine waters and can reach three feet.
American eels range as far north as Greenland and have been reported as far south as Venezuela.
While their movements aren’t as well recorded outside of Canada and the U.S., American eels are believed to also currently range through eastern Mexico and the Caribbean.
Do all American eels eventually migrate back to the Sargasso Sea?
Some researchers categorize American eels as “facultative catadromous,” meaning that their migration pattern may not be as obligatory as once believed.
But to the best of current knowledge, American eels do make the trip back to the sea when it’s time to spawn.
How do American eels know when it’s time to spawn?
When an American eel is ready to spawn, its body begins to physically change for the journey. Little is known, however, on what triggers those changes.
How many eggs actually get fertilized?
American eel eggs are fertilized externally (after being laid) and are believed to hatch within a week or two. But what happens during spawning in the Sargasso Sea is still largely a mystery.

Quick-Thoughts: Mamoru Hosoda’s Belle (2021)
Well, there was a lot of movie in that movie for a movie; felt like I just watched an entire mini-series in one go for better and worse. Better because as a redraft of both Disney’s Beauty and the Beast AND (let’s not forget) Hannah Montana, it passionately adds more than what I think films such as Ready Player One (2018) or The Mitchells vs. The Machines (2021) failed to show in their imitations of the internet age’s virtual realities and new media hotspots for celebrity potential, and how Mamoru Hosoda’s takes (through similarly overdramatic examples) seem a bit more genuine to our own world’s circumstances with such social technology in terms of how it influences our mental and exterior behavior. Worse though because it makes for a tonal disaster with its colossal cargo of storylines that it tries to intersect into one complete story, causing so much potential commentary in each of them to be narrowed by its almost hyperactive momentum; dramatic moments are bomb-dropped like crazy in this, and even though many of them have such compelling meaning on their own, it tampers with the overall pathos so unevenly. The animation and creativity behind Belle is undeniably special, which makes it hurt to not like this as a whole because of the drawbacks that come of that quirk.
Although, I suppose maybe the overstimulation from the execution of this film is fitting in light of its setting, but at what cost for telling a well-thought-out story? Conveniences went loco towards the end!
Verdict: C+

“Belle” is now playing in select theaters.

Federico Fazio and Benjamin Stambouli get squad numbers
Spurs' last signings of the summer have squad numbers.
Federico Fazio and Benjamin Stambouli signed for Tottenham Hotspur after the season began, so there weren't many low squad numbers for them to choose from. They had to pick from what was left.
Fazio has chosen to wear No. 25. He wore No. 2 at Sevilla, but that is taken by Kyle Walker. He has worn No. 6 for Argentina before, but Vlad Chiriches already has that. So with no obvious choice, he grabbed 25, and there is no apparent reason for it.
Stambouli grabbed No. 21. He normally wears No. 22, but Nacer Chadli already has that number.
Fazio and Stambouli both figure to stick around the club for a while so they could very well have new numbers before they leave the club. Fazio, in particular, could grab No. 6, seeing as Chiriches doesn't seem long for Spurs. Chadli could be on the way out eventually, opening 22 for Stambouli, but he's first choice right now so that is still a little speculative.

VF Corp Stock Institutional Investors
Have you ever been surprised when a price of an equity instrument such as VF Corp is soaring high without any particular reason? This is usually happening because many institutional investors are aggressively trading VF Corp backward and forwards among themselves. VF Corp's institutional investor refers to the entity that pools money to purchase VF Corp's securities or originate loans. Institutional investors include commercial and private banks, credit unions, insurance companies, pension funds, hedge funds, endowments, and mutual funds. Operating companies that invest excess capital in these types of assets may also be included in the term and may influence corporate governance by exercising voting rights in their investments.

VF Corp Market Capitalization
The company currently falls under 'Large-Cap' category with total capitalization of 13.76 B. Market capitalization usually refers to the total value of a company's stock within the entire market. To calculate VF Corp's market, we take the total number of its shares issued and multiply it by VF Corp's current market price. To manage market risk and economic uncertainty, many investors today build portfolios that are diversified across equities with different market capitalizations. However, as a general rule, conservative investors tend to hold large-cap stocks, and these looking for more risk prefer small-cap and mid-cap equities.
VF Corp Profitablity
VF Corp's profitability indicators refer to fundamental financial ratios that showcase VF Corp's ability to generate income relative to its revenue or operating costs. If, let's say, VF Corp is currently losing money, the management's focus should be on how to reverse that trend. However, when revenue exceeds expenses, VF Corp's executives or investors may be in less hurry to break that information down - which is where profitability analysis comes into play. Gaining a greater understanding of VF Corp's profitability requires more research than a typical breakdown of VF Corp's financial statements. By doing a profitability analysis, companies can identify areas needing attention, and investors can make a profitable trade.
The company has Net Profit Margin of 8.45 %, which may imply that it executes well on its competitive polices and has reasonable control over its expenses and variable costs. This is very large. In the same way, it shows Net Operating Margin of 15.61 %, which entails that for every 100 dollars of revenue, it generated 0.16 of operating income.
Management Efficiency

Eric Rohmer’s least typical and least popular film also happens to be his best: a wonderful version of Chretien de Troyes’ 12th-century epic poem, set to music, about the adventures of an innocent knight. Deliberately artificial in style and setting—the perspectives are as flat as in medieval tapestries, the colors bright and vivid, the musical deliveries strange and often comic—the film is as faithful to its source as it can be, given the limited material available about the period. Rohmer’s fidelity to the text compels him to include narrative descriptions as well as dialogue in the sung passages. Absolutely unique—a must for medievalists, as well as filmgoers looking for something different. This film also features the acting debut of the late and very talented Pascal Ogier (1978).

Hello there, I was playing some Pokemon Sword yesterday on the latest Yuzu version and it was working fine. Occasional freezes and crashes when having to generate alot of shaders but I was expecting that. Booted it up today and instead of going into my save file it loaded up the character creator, somehow my save was deleted. I wasn’t that far into the game so I decided to just start over, however when I went to save Yuzu just froze and I ended up having to just close it. I have no idea why this is happening, I am using mods but I have tried without them and it still freezes upon saving. And i’ve tried everything to fix this.

Nines often focus on its confident and you will good dating with the environment
In practice, we have all three harmonic approaches inside the you in varying level. But not, we are apt to have a principal harmonic approach – usually the one of this our sort of. Off types of desire is the combination of harmonic methods in the office when people is actually fixing disputes.
The Reactive Strategy (Sizes cuatro,six,8)
Individuals whose principal Harmonic strategy ‘s the activated strategy are mentally reactive under fret. They tend to your workplace themselves right up whenever problematic goes and you may enjoys a hard time containing its thinking. So it emotional intensity allows these to have the “realness” of your situation, even though it’s a relatively brief that. Ventilation the fury allows these to move on to speaing frankly about the trouble. Searching for anyone else observe the brand new realness of one’s problem, it assume someone else to reply mentally. Instance an effect create make sure other people agree totally that in reality so it is a big contract. In the event that other people do not function in how the fresh Reactive strategy sizes need, they might end up being far more upset and you can mental.
The Activated approach is not definitely trusting of anyone else. They have solid opinions and you will tastes and want to see in which anybody else sit.
Reactivity away from Fours
Fours get towards problems when you are excessively irritable, temperamental and notice-absorbed. Fours generally have (over-) remarkable reactions to help you troubles. They want to procedure and you can internalize their experience. Title and mental responses was highly connected within the a several. Fours often withdraw within their creativeness, where dilemmas usually escalate to the feelings out-of despair and you may hopelessness. Fours want to be emotionally open that have and you may trust others, however, more so with really intimate some one. Their mental protect was down so they can help others within the.

Eights continue the protect up right through the day and wish to remove its need for (and you may trust in) others. They don’t really require others observe its vulnerable top.
The good Attitude Strategy (Versions 2,seven,9)
Individuals whose dominating Harmonic approach ‘s the Confident Frame of mind strategy is fundamentally optimistic and you can usually prevent negative thoughts otherwise circumstances. Lower than fret, it seek to avoid the disease, disturb themselves that have something else, otherwise eliminate the situation. These types should feel a lot better and need anybody else around them be more confident. They would favour individuals happy (also themselves) than to deal with trouble otherwise negativity (especially in themselves). Regrettably this approach can lead these to refute the existence of its trouble and therefore delay addressing him or her.
These kinds likewise have issues with looking a balance anywhere between meeting their unique requires and you may meeting the requirements of others.
Self-confident Attitude regarding Twos
Twos will get into the issues when you are as well clingy, alarmed, and you can care about-crucial. Twos usually work at their own confident features, while you are repressing their mental poison or attitude. Twos accept that he or she is an excellent and therefore their good intentions tend to profit him or her confident recognition out-of others. Exactly what someone else consider Twos is essential in order to Twos. Thus, Twos are often researching ways to meet the requirements regarding anybody else and you can selecting an effective way to excite other people. Twos tend to deny her needs in preference of fulfilling brand new means regarding anybody else.

Self-confident Outlook from Nines
Nines get to the issues when it is as well complacent, inattentive, and you can persistent. Nines have a tough time speaking about disagreement or changes because the it disrupts their peace and you will balances. Nines, ergo, make an effort to refute or end these problems because of the building their connection to your status quo. These problems covers by themselves, so why annoy dealing with her or him. Nines concentrate on the requires off anyone else, often flexible to anyone else. Nines attempt to balance the needs of others with the very own need away from freedom.
The brand new Competency Strategy (Designs 1,step 3,5)
Someone whose dominant Harmonic strategy ‘s the Competency strategy is solving difficulties during the an objective, unemotional trend. Instead of folks of this new activated means, they won’t get upset when troubles happen, they remain chill and you will emotionally detached from their store.
Proficiency from Of those
Ones could possibly get towards the conflicts by being as well impatient, rigid, and important. Of those manage solving dilemmas by-doing what is correct.

The Beast of Barrisdale
Barrisdale Monster.
The Beast of Barrisdale is said to have been seen in the area around Loch Hourn in Scotland.It is classed as a lake monster by some but it can fly. The description is that it has three legs, two in front and one in back and huge wings . It is said to have a home/nest in the Knoydart Hills, near Ladhar Bheinn. It has a very loud roar often heard at night.
In the late 1800’s a crofter from Barrisdale said he often saw it flying over the Knoydart hills. Once it chased him but he made it home to safety. An old man by the name of Ranald MacMaster also claimed to have found the tracks of the monster in the hills .
In 1845 a wild roaring was heard Alasdair Macdonald said that he was there near Arnisdale, on the north side of Loch Hourn. A few local men had got together to push a boat out to go fishing. As they were pushing the boat out a wild roaring was heard. The boat was dropped and they ran into the house scared.
In 1903, two men, gamekeepers,John MacMaster and John MacGillvary, were up on a mountain on the east end of Loch Hourn. There were six small dogs with them. The roaring started coming across the valley. The dogs tried to get under the legs of the two gamekeepers, hiding with their hair standing on end, frightened out of their wits.
In 1866 it was seen by another gamekeeper. Described as the size of a donkey but with a mane and a tail like a horse. The head was broad at the top like that of a wild boar but there was no snout. It was a heavy over-hanging jaw and terribly, terribly ugly.It left tracks in the snow, almost round, and about 4 inches(10 cms) in diameter, and gave the impression of a very heavy animal.Behind the impression of the paw there was the mark of a long powerful claw.
No other sightings have been recorded .What was it? Some say it was a dragon,some a wild hybrid,a cross between a boar and something else.
It however is not the only monster in the area.
Loch Hourn runs inland from the sea opposite the island of Skye. Sometimes described as the most fjord-like of the sea lochs of Scotland. It is open to the sea which is important to remember when looking at explanations for sightings in the Loch. Hourn is Gaelic for Hell, and the Loch is so named because of the spin drifts which capsized many sailing boats. Quite a few lives have been lost on the Loch . Around a hundred years ago Loch Hourn was busy with small boats fishing for herrings.
Most people will have heard of the famous sea serpent sighting in the Loch that was reported in The Zoologist . According to R T Gould in August 20 and 21 of 1872 6 people on board the cutter Leda saw the creature described as a line of black humps with a head and neck occasionally seen above the surface on the Loch. In the 1950’s Willie MacKenzie was 9 years of age when he was sitting on a small knoll, near the sea, waiting for his father, to return from delivering the mail, by boat. The head of a creature, that could only be described as a big eel or a serpent emerged, ten feet out of the water, moving its head from side to side, about 250 yards in front of him. Willie had to be forced back in the boat to go home, and to this day, his heart still races when he crosses that part of the Loch. It was suspected that Rob Foster, a fisherman from Corran also saw the monster, around this time

Once again a place that seems to have much strangeness going back years.

One-2-One with D.J. Lewis: Aqua (Konosuba)
Isekai is one of the most saturated genres in anime history, and like we’ve spoken in our initial rant about it, there’s always some ‘new’ title that drops EVERY DAMN SEASON! From the people who brought you ‘The Time I Got Sucked in to Another World with my iPhone 12’, comes ‘That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Refrigerator’! Japan loves coming up with things and objects that people can be brought into another world to be reincarnated as, but despite how stupidly long these titles are; and how generic most of the protagonists can be, there are exceptions. One of those exceptions comes in the form of a parody of all of the common tropes found in isekai anime titles; including how useless party members can be. One of the biggest useless party members happens to be a goddess (if you’d even call her that) of water, and also has the personality of a fish out of water. Guys n’ gals, meet Aqua, a useless goddess.
OMG! You’re useless!!
Konosuba is one of those shows that takes the ‘norms’ that you’d find in every isekai trope, and throws it out the window. You’d think upon first glance it would be about a generic MC getting transported to another world after death, and waking up in a forest to search for the king and become a knight and fight off dragons in order to save the kingdom, right? NO! Konosuba takes all of that and tells it to go kick rocks; because Kazuma (the ‘generic’ MC) doesn’t give a damn about fighting the demon king, he just wants to party and live it up in the new world he’s in. (And even drags Aqua along for the ride.)
Aqua is basically the first person Kazuma meets and already hates her guts…and the fact that she made her panties invisible so people wouldn’t see them. (Yeah, but now they can SEE YOUR BARE ASS!) Well, as air-headed and useless as she is within Kazuma’s party, Aqua brings a sense of comic relief and joy.
Part 1: The Origin of the Useless Goddess
So, was Aqua useless from the start? Well she’s worshiped in the Axis Order in the Fantasy World, and is basically in charge of trying to get Japanese people who’ve died to be reincarnated into the Fantasy World. However Eris was the one taking one most of her responsibilities, because Aqua would rather read manga and be lazy. (No surprise there.) Kazuma wasn’t like other Japanese people; instead when he was reincarnated, he took Aqua with him as a cheat item (which she hated) and the two of them started getting odd part-time jobs in order to make a living in the Fantasy World. Eventually Aqua started getting noticed throughout the town for her abilities and also her troublemaking; which places Kazuma as the one who ends up as her “babysitter”. When it comes to responsibilities…yeah, Aqua’s pretty useless.
Part 2: How Useless Is Your Goddess?
Aqua is an unaccountable airhead with a ‘kid-in-a-candy-store’ personality, who can be really annoying at some of the worst times. Though she won’t pass judgement on push her beliefs on people, she speaks out of term and has landed herself and the rest of Kazuma’s party in hot water. As a goddess Aqua has validation issues; as she constantly seeks praises for her good deeds – only to ruin her merits moments later. Aqua is also a terrible lair, and has no concept of what a ‘lie’ is and how to tell one due in part to her honesty. Because of this its easy to trick her into doing things or even getting her to agree with you on certain topics, and while she thinks highly of herself, Aqua isn’t the brightest when it comes to business sense.
On the flipside; Aqua can be smart when she wants to be, and has been known to be a walking encyclopedia for Kazuma and the rest of the team. Although she’s a goddess, Aqua forgets just how powerful her priestess abilities actually are; and has performed feats that others would deem extraordinary. She’s not fond of toads or demons and surely hates the undead, but she’ll get along with them if she gets to know them long enough. (Not the toads though.) As far as her skills are concerned, they may seem impressive on paper, but in actual battle…they’re useless against normal people and toads. Aside from her Priestess Magic, Aqua has powerful skills like “God Blow” and “God Requiem”, but she can also bring people back from the dead, purify unclean water, cause biblical floods, lift curses from those possessed by demons, a master craftswoman, can do water bending (just a little bit, don’t get excited Last Airbender fans), has holy magic, and is also great at party tricks. I know it looks like I made Aqua not sound as useless as she seems, but in the anime only half of this stuff is seen.
Okay, so you’re not as useless…
Part 3: The Legacy of the Useless Goddess
Many supporting characters in isekai anime titles are equal in strength and intelligence to a certain degree, as for Aqua, you’re kinda rolling the dice and hoping for the best. She’s totally useless when it comes to certain responsibilities, but she also knows how to entertain a crowd with her party tricks. Perhaps she’s not totally useless at everything, she’s just more skilled in other areas as opposed to the ones most people would assume she’s good at; but they’d be wrong. While she’d be okay for quests where there’s demons and undead involved, Aqua would still need to be babysat when it comes to keeping herself from getting in trouble around town. Also, she needs to PUT SOME DAMN DRAWS ON! Nobody wants to see that booty every single day (not unless you’re a freak); ask Kazuma when he’s groaning and rolling his eyes. At the end of the day, Aqua’s gonna be Aqua, and there’s nothing you can do about that.
That will do it for this One-2-One. Until next post, stay nerdy! 😉

Top Best Ways to Firm Your Sagging Skin
Are you someone who is worried about sagging skin? Are you looking for some reliable ways to gently pull back your skin tightly on your face forever? Does the jiggle or sagging skin bother you? If yes, taking any surgical lift surgery like eyelid surgery or a facelift from a professional skin specialist may present you with the most dramatic results. However, if you don’t want to go for surgery, don’t worry; there are many other ski-tightening options too. These common options nevertheless lower cost and less downtime. In addition, another significant benefit of them is that one can have such treatment on almost any part of their body that needs a lift.
Now let’s see some of the top skin-tightening options one can opt for to get rid of their sagging skin.
Skin firming creams, lotions, and ointments
Nowadays, you may find a diverse range of such cosmetic products, most of which come with promising claims that your sagging or loose skin will remain tightened in its natural place. But be very careful while spending money on such skin-firming creams as most dermatologists say it is impossible to tighten skin merely with creams. That is because neither a cream nor a lotion penetrated deep into the skin enough to do this. However, you may see a bit of change if your cosmetic product contains retinoids, like retinol. They can help your body to manufacture more collagen, and collagen ultimately prevents skin from sagging while tightening it.
Non-Invasive Skin Tightening Procedures for Modest Lifting
The word non-invasive is used with some skin tightening procedures as they leave your skin intact. You don’t have to experience an incision, puncture wound, or raw skin after the procedure. Although you may suffer some temporary swelling or redress, don’t worry; they are just signs you will have after any procedure.
If you opt for non-invasive kind of skin-tightening treatments, you may likely go for the following procedures:
1. Ultrasound
Most dermatologists use ultrasound to send rays to send heat deep into the skin layers. That heat then triggers the body to produce more collagen. With a single ultrasound treatment, most individuals see modest tightening and lifting within just 2-6 months. However, you can get more and more advantages from additional treatments.
1. Radiofrequency
During this particular skin-lifting treatment, a skin specialist typically places a specialized device against your skin, which later heats the tissues present beneath. Most individuals usually feel the skin tightening immediately after a single sitting of this treatment. However, our body generally takes time to make collagen; you can see the best results within 5-6 months. And the results of radiofrequency skin tightening usually last from 2-3 years if you take care of your skin appropriately.
1. Laser Treatment
Nowadays, some lasers are capable of sending heat into the deeper layers of the skin without even wounding the topmost skin layer epidermis. So now, many dermatologists use these lasers to tighten skin all over the body, especially in regions like the belly or upper arms where there is looser skin. You may need roughly 3-5 laser treatment sittings, which gradually appear within 2-6 months following the last treatment, to see desirable results.
1. Laser Resurfacing
That is considered one of the most effective skin tightening procedures that will help get you rid of your sagging skin. Unlike the laser treatment mentioned above, this particular treatment mainly requires a little downtime. So, you will need to stay home for almost 5-7 days after this treatment. Moreover, laser resurfacing gives the fastest and the most reliable results within a short period. Once you heal from this treatment, you will see fewer wrinkles, diminished fine lines, lightened dark spots, and exceptional skin tightening results within 2 weeks. However, the tradeoff of this procedure requires some downtime and has a more significant risk of several other side effects such as scarring.
What to expect from these skin-tightening treatments?
In general, you can expect the following from these non-invasive skin-tightening procedures when taken from a reliable skin specialist:
1. The results of such procedures appear gradually, so they usually seem natural.
2. They usually have no or little downtime.
3. Most of them are safe for people of all skin colors.
4. They can tighten your skin almost anywhere on your body.
5. They usually have a little risk of side effects, primarily when performed by a board-certified dermatologist. However, a person may experience slight swelling or redness.
6. Most of these procedures take 1-2 hours or less.
7. The cost of these treatments usually varies and is not typically covered by any insurance, so one must ask how much his required procedure will cost.
How to determine if I am a good candidate for skin tightening treatment or not?
You are likely to get the best possible results of skin-tightening procedures safely if you
1. Are at your optimum and healthy weight
2. Consume a healthy diet
3. Do not smoke
4. Drink little or no alcohol
5. Significantly protect your skin from harmful UV rays of the Sun
6. Never tan indoors
7. Have a minute amount of sagging skin
8. Not much aged, and many more.
On the other hand, skin specialists usually do not recommend such skin tightening procedures to pregnant ladies, those who take certain medications, or people who have some skin infection.
Ask a board-certified dermatologist for it.
Seeing a board-certified and professional skin specialist is undoubtedly the safest way to determine which skin tightening treatment will prove the best for you. With so many skin-tightening procedures available nowadays, you may look here and there for an expert who is very familiar with all the different skin treatments. Only a specialist dermatologist can guide you to the best possible option for your sagging skin concerns.

Sagnac interferometer
from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Sagnac interferometer is an interferometer that enables a rotational speed to be measured absolutely. An observer is able to use this arrangement to determine whether or not he is in rotation.
This does not contradict the principle of relativity . This only means the impossibility of determining the uniform translatory proper motion of the observer, provided that the experimental arrangement used as a whole rests in the same inertial system as the observer. The best-known confirmation of this view is the Michelson-Morley experiment , with which the uniform translatory proper motion of the earth should be measured "absolutely", but which produced a negative result. Uniform translatory movement is therefore relative. However, this is different with rotary movements. Rotations in relation to an inertial system can also be measured absolutely with a closed experimental arrangement, because it is not possible to define an inertial system in which the entire experimental arrangement is at rest.
The oldest method of absolute rotation measurement is the Foucault pendulum , with which it was possible for the first time to measure the rotation of the earth without observing the sky and thus to confirm the heliocentric worldview of Nicolaus Copernicus . Also gyros and laser gyroscopes operate on this principle. What the Foucault pendulum is to mechanics, the Sagnac effect is to optics. A phase shift occurs between two beams of coherent light , which are directed clockwise and counterclockwise via mirrors on the same path in a circle , when the entire apparatus including the light source rotates. The path of the beam that circulates in the direction of rotation of the device is lengthened and that of the other is shortened, proportional to the speed of rotation of the device.
This confirms all theories in which the speed of light is independent of the speed of the rotating body - these include the special theory of relativity and the theory of the quiescent light ether (whereby the agreement between the two theories is only given at low speeds). However, since the classical ether theory has been refuted by numerous other experiments (above all the Michelson-Morley experiment ), the special theory of relativity and the Lorentz theory of ether, which is experimentally equivalent but conceptually outdated, are the only theories that can explain all experiments.
Original sketch of the Sagnac interferometer by Georges Sagnac
The first hypotheses for the existence of such an effect were proposed by Oliver Lodge (1897) and Albert A. Michelson (1904). Two light beams, which describe a circular path in opposite directions, would have to require different transit times due to the rotation of the earth, which would have to be proven as a displacement of the interference fringes. This was to determine whether the earth was the ether , a hypothetical substance which, according to the ideas of the time, should fill the space,
• carries along what should give a negative result,
• or whether the ether is at rest, which should give a positive result.
In 1911 Max von Laue continued this theoretical investigation, already taking into account the special theory of relativity. The result of his calculations was that, according to both the special theory of relativity and the theory of the light ether at rest, approximately the same transit time difference can be expected with a first approximation , due to the independence of the speed of light from the movement of the experimental arrangement in both theories. Only with complete ether entrainment (although this theory had already been disproved at this point due to the Fizeau experiment ) would there be a negative result. While Laue derived the effect from the point of view of any inertial system, which is quite sufficient for a consistent explanation of the effect in the context of the SRT, other authors such as Paul Langevin (1921/35) also described the effect from the point of view of a co-rotating reference system, both according to the special as well as the general relativity theory.
In 1913, such an experiment was actually carried out by Georges Sagnac , with the displacement of the interference fringes already expected from the point of view of the theory of relativity (and the static ether). Sagnac saw the effect as a refutation of the source dependence of the speed of light, i.e. H. as refutation of the emission theory of light, and as direct evidence of a light ether - he did not, however, mention the theory of relativity. However, this omission was meaningless, since, as mentioned, Laue had already predicted such an effect two years earlier as a consequence of the special theory of relativity .
As only later became known, a similar experiment had already been carried out by Franz Harress between 1909 and 1911 , which can be regarded as a synthesis of the Fizeau and Sagnac experiments. He tried to measure the entrainment coefficient in glass, but he used a rotating test arrangement which is very similar to that later used by Sagnac. The displacements he found were not correctly interpreted by Harress, but Laue was able to show in 1920 that the result found by Harress corresponded to the Sagnac effect.
The structure
Basic structure of a Sagnac interferometer
A coherent beam of light from a light source, Sagnac used a mercury vapor lamp , is split into two partial beams with a semi-transparent mirror. With the help of mirrors, these are guided in the opposite direction in a circle and meet again at the beam splitter. The interference pattern is observed on a detector screen. If the arrangement is at rest, the paths of both beams are the same length and in the middle of the screen you can see destructive interference, because the reflection from an optically thinner to an optically denser medium results in a phase shift of 180 °, which is the opposite of the one in the picture clockwise beam results in a phase shift of 180 ° compared to the clockwise beam. If, however, the entire structure is rotated around an axis perpendicular to the beam plane, the optical path for both partial beams is no longer the same length, as the beam splitter has already rotated a little further in the time it takes for the light to circulate. This shows a shift in the interference fringes.
What is particularly noteworthy about this experiment is that all parts of the system - light source, intermediate device and measuring device (observer) - are moved along with it, but an influence of the rotation can still be observed.
In every inertial system , light propagates at a constant speed . In the following, the inertial system is the reference system and the interferometer rotates with the angular velocity . Light circulates on an arbitrarily shaped closed path of length . It is accordingly distracted by mirrors. The time it takes the light to cover the distance is
During this time the apparatus rotates around the angle . So assuming that the light has to be in tangential direction
Cover a longer or shorter section. ( is not the distance between the axis of rotation and the section , but the distance between the axis of rotation and the adjacent tangent. is therefore the component of the rotational speed pointing in the tangential direction .) This results in the complete rotation
where is the area enclosed by the beam path. The difference in the distances that the two circulating light waves have to cover is because one covers more distance, the other less. The fringe shift ( path difference as phase difference) is thus
With an area A = 1 (marked S in the sketch ) and a wavelength λ = 633 nm, an angular velocity of 1360 ° / s (227 revolutions per minute) is required to change from destructive to constructive interference ( ).
Michelson-Gale attempt
In 1925 Albert A. Michelson and Henry G. Gale succeeded in using an interferometer 613 m long and 339 m wide to measure the rotation of the earth with a relative accuracy of 2%. The relative fringe shift was 0.23. In order to get sharp interference fringes, the entire light path was evacuated to 17 mbar . A carbon arc provided sufficient light. What is special about the Michelson-Gale experiment is that - unlike the rotating Sagnac interferometer - there is no movement relative to the earth's reference system.
Michelson and Gale themselves recognized correctly that their experiment makes no statement about the existence of the ether. It can be explained both with the theory of relativity and with an ether at rest. The Michelson-Gale experiment is of great importance insofar as it undermines all attempts to explain the negative result of the Michelson-Morley experiment by carrying along the ether. It seems absurd that with translation (Michelson-Morley experiment) the aether is fully carried through the earth, with rotation (Michelson-Gale experiment), however, the ether rests relative to the fixed stars.

Beaded violets: weaving pattern and photo
Beaded violets: weaving pattern and photo
Beading is an art accessible to everyone. Any needlewoman can easily make a wonderful bouquet of violets in just a few hours, having mastered two simple techniques - a frame with a central row and continuous wrapping loops.
Basic tools and materials
violets from beads photo
Handmade beaded flowers are always pleasing to the eye - they look so alive that you want to smell and touch them. Every needlewoman can make such a miracle. A beaded violet for beginners will not seem like a complicated product. You need to use the minimum set of tools and materials that can be purchased at any needlework store:
1. Beads of several types (matte, shiny, small, large). Minimum number of colors: green, yellow and any other of your choice (red, blue, pink, purple).
2. Wire of different thickness. For stringing beads, its diameter should be no more than 0.2 mm, and for legs, which will give stability to the product, the diameter of the wire can be several times larger.
3. Scissors orwire cutters.
4. Floral ribbon or green silk thread to wrap flower stems.
5. Metal or glass balls, plasticine or clay, which are placed on the bottom of the pot.
6. If you are thinking about how to make a violet from beads, which will be an exact copy of a living flower, get a small vase and sprinkle the finished product with moss or earth on top.
Parallel weaving technique
The famous keychain "crocodile" is just the product from which needlewomen usually begin to learn the art of beading, but few people realize that luxurious violets from beads can be made using the same principle. The weaving pattern is extremely simple and does not require special skills.
beaded violet step by step photo
By this principle, you can make petals and flowers. First you need to string three beads and skip the wire so that one bead remains on the bottom and the other two on top. Continue to work in the same vein, each time increasing the number of beads in the row. The petal should take the form of an inverted isosceles triangle. The final row is made from beads of a different color for contrast, and on the free ends of the wire, continue to string a few more beads and stretch them to one bead that was laid at the base.
Technique "frame with a central row"
To make large bouquets of beads, craftswomen came up with a method due to which an artificial product is sometimes difficultdistinguish from real flowers. A frame with a central row (CCR) allows you to bend the finished petal as you like - it all depends on the strength of the wire, from which both roses and smaller flowers - beaded violets - can acquire any shape. The weaving pattern is not as simple as it seems at first glance, but, having mastered it, you will be able to make even the most unusual products.
terry beaded violet
1. The wire of the required length is cut off, a small loop is made at one end; several beads are strung on the free end, which will form the beginning of the frame of the central row.
2. Pick up the workpiece so that the loop is at the bottom. Tie a knot at the upper end, and string beads on the free end, which will later braid the central row.
3. Pull the wire with beads up, tighten the loop. Try not to make the petals pointed.
4. After completing the previous step, pull the wire with beads down. Sew a few stitches as required.
Green leaves
beaded violet for beginners
Thanks to PCR, you can make anything: plants, butterflies, dragonflies and much more. It all depends on the number of beads in the central row and wrapping loops. Violet leaves are made with pointed ends - to achieve this effect, the wire must be held at an angle of 45 degrees. This is indicated in the second figure. On the front side, the wire will not be visible, and the product will look alive. For making large petalsthe central row is made of a large number of beads, while there should be few wrapping loops. By the same principle, you can make not only petals, but also violets themselves from beads, the scheme of which can be performed both in NOP and in KCR.
Continuous wrapping stitch technique
violets from beads scheme
Any flower can be made in several ways, and beginners in beading should learn the simplest of them. The technique of continuous wrapping loops (CNT) is the simplest, but with the help of it you can make real masterpieces. By the way, it is also used to make violets from beads: the weaving scheme allows you to make a magnificent bouquet that will look like a living one. It is necessary to string several beads on a strong wire, depending on the size of the product, and twist at the base to form a vicious circle. All other loops should be done in a similar way, increasing their size from row to row.
Beautiful beaded violets: photo with step by step instructions
To make a composition you will need basic knowledge of PCR and NOP techniques. For a bouquet of nine violets, you will need about twenty meters of wire and at least four colors of beads: green, yellow, two shades of blue, pink or purple.
how to make a violet from beads
Step 1. To make the finished product look like a living flower, you need to make buds. Put 6 green beads on the wire, fasten them at the base. There should be 5 such loops - this is the sepal.
Step 2. The bud itself is made of blue, purple or pink beads in the same way, depending on the variety of violet. The base is put on over the green loops and twisted.
Step 3. The yellow center is done in the same way.
Step 4. The violet flower consists of ten petals made using the NOP technique. The first row is made of seven beads, the second - of fifteen, the third - of twenty. As soon as the flower is ready, stick the yellow center into the center - this is how your first beaded violet will be completely ready. The step-by-step photo shows a great combination of light and dark colors, so you can do the same if you want.
Step 5. Green petals are made using the KCR technique: a frame of five beads wraps around several loops.
Step 6. Make the remaining violet flowers and buds. There should be no more than nine of them in a small pot.
Step 7. For stability, twist all the stems of the flowers: the bouquet will consist of one large stable stem.
Step 8. But the bottom of the pot can put metal or glass balls, floral clay or plasticine. Carefully stick the bouquet in and shape the violets.
Useful tips for needlewomen
Purchase several shades of beads of the same color to make the flower look lifelike.
Use different types of beads: matte, shiny, translucent - this way the product looks more impressive.
Try to choose the wire that matches the color of the beads: make flower legs only from green wire, petals from blue,red or copper - depending on what color the beaded violets will be.
The weaving pattern is what inexperienced needlewomen need to follow, otherwise the product may turn out to be crooked.
Buy only high-quality beads, mostly Czech-made, because transparent beads, dyed inside or out, will soon fade, and the product will lose its original appearance.
Dust flowers with a small brush at least once every three months.
For fast stringing in the manufacture of large items, use a spinning wheel for beads (spinner). If you get incredibly beautiful beaded violets, take pictures of them with real flowers and be surprised at how similar they are.
Always wrap the stem of flowers with floral tape or silk thread, masking the wire under it as much as possible.
Let your imagination run wild
violets from beads weaving pattern
Having learned how to make beaded violets and other flowers, you can use them not only for their intended purpose, putting them on the windowsill, but also as decoration for hairpins or hair bands. You can also make a beautiful necklace, bracelet or miniature pendant. A terry violet made of beads will look especially impressive as a key ring or a clasp on a bag. Having learned all the beading techniques, you can easily fulfill any of your dreams and look great, because handmade products are worth their weight in gold and will never lose their relevance.
How to make a violet from beadsyourself?
If you really liked the flower, but you did not find the step-by-step instructions for making it, it will not be difficult for you to come up with a diagram. Products with large petals are made mainly according to the KCR technique, small ones - according to the NOP. Mentally disassemble the flower you like into parts and count how many leaves, petals, buds, legs, and centers are in it. Choose a few shades and evenly distribute them over the surface of the product. Now imagine how the flower will shimmer in the sun, get creative and expect great results!

In the article cited above, changes have been made in Table 2 on page 480 (for values under “Self-reported” and “New”) and in the text under the RESULTS section on page 481 under the heading “Diabetes,” where the final sentence was revised to read: Percentage of new diabetes increased in both the urban and rural areas (P < 0.0001).
The changes do not modify the overall results of the study.
The online version of the article has been corrected to reflect these changes.

Video Problem on RPi2
I installed OSMC RC2. Turned RPi on, and green light blinks once then goes out. Video show multi-colored screen. Tried different displays and RC1, also, to no avail. Tried with and without USB KB/mouse dongle and WiFi dongle installed. It previously booted OK with Raspbian installed.
Make sure you are selecting the correct device in the installer.
It’s RPi1 or 2 and I selected RPi2. Is there something else?
After the card has been imaged can you take it out of your PC and put it back in, then open the drive letter and provide us a list of files on the card (screenshot is fine) and their file sizes and dates ?
Also what size and brand is the SD card, and have you tried another SD card ?
Tried a different SD card that had a working Raspbian on it. It’s labeled: Micro SD HC I 8GB
Strange - that looks ok.
Can you try downloading RC2 for Pi 2 directly from here:
Then when running the installer, tick the box that says “use a local build on my computer” and browse to the file you just downloaded.
Same result. I get the 4 color screen and the green light on the card blinks once.
In that case I have no idea why it’s not working for you - I just downloaded a fresh version of the Pi 2 installer and did a new install on another card just to double check there wasn’t a problem with the installer and it worked perfectly for me.
Silly question, but you don’t have both a Pi 1 B+ and Pi 2 in similar cases do you ? I have both in identical cases and have occasionally mixed them up as they are very hard to tell apart. :smile:
Just saw your message. Coincidentally, I just figured out how to check the processor. It say" ARMv6 compatible rev 7. Is that a 1 B+ or a 2? I know I ordered a Pi 2. Reason I checked is because I downloaded an OpenELEC image and tried to boot it. Same rainbow screen!
ARMV6 is Pi1, easiest way to identify your Pi version is by the silkscreen.
Yes, just figured out I have a Pi 1 B+, so after installing the correct version…it worked! Imagine that!
And along the way I learned a bunch!
Thank you, DBMandrake & sam_nazarko for your patience!
I hope you’re sending it back for a replacement if you had actually ordered a Pi 2 and only got a Pi 1. :wink:
The difference in speed between Pi 1 and 2 is substantial, and considering that they’re also the same price there is no reason to buy a Pi 1 these days, especially if you didn’t ask for one!
Bought it last November, played with it a bit, then put it down to collect dust until last week. Forgot that it was a B+ because at the time it was latest model. Forgot a new one came out recently. Now I just have to figure out how to get it to stream TV. More learning ahead! Thanks for your patience! :smile:

Natural Language Generation NLG as a Game Changer
Auto Generate Product Descriptions Using NLG
Nobody ever thinks of Natural Language Generation (NLG) when launching an online store.
But they sure do as soon as they start writing all those product descriptions.
NLG is how businesses develop auto-generated content. It’s a technology that enables users to write thousands of content pieces for different web pages without employing an army of human writers.
Is this for real?
Yes, it is indeed possible because data-to-text NLG is a branch of Artificial Intelligence (AI) responsible for creating relevant content based on data. That essentially means that you feed the system with the existing business-related information so it can craft automatically generated content.
This kind of NLG enables you to write product descriptions at scale, generating thousands of valuable pages based on your data inputs. That way, you get highly relevant product descriptions in no time, giving a big boost to your eCommerce store.
But let’s slow down here.
NLG is a broad topic, and it requires a proper explanation. In this post, we will explore what makes automatically generated content so precious. We will also show you how to use NLG tools for auto-generated content.

2. Benefits of auto-generated content
3. How to use AX Semantics to write product descriptions
4. Pros and cons of automatically generated content
5. Conclusion
What is NLG and how does it work?
Automated processes are key to success in online retail, but how do they work? How can NLG platforms create sufficient value for your business?
It depends on the type of NLG
The two main branches of NLG are GPT-3 and data-to-text. They generate content differently, so here’s what you need to know about them.
1. GPT-3
GPT-3 stands for Generative Pre-trained Transformer. It's a type of NLG that relies on deep learning to write content. The system can learn to write by analyzing large datasets of text, including books, news articles, websites, and social media posts.
It means that GPT-3 analyzes massive content volumes online, so it can generate content based on what it has learned. GPT-3 can write in multiple styles and genres, making it versatile for a range of applications.
However, it's not suitable for product descriptions because it doesn't always write accurately. This type of NLG is prone to mistakes because it creates content on its own. If accuracy is your top priority, GPT 3 text generators are the inferior option compared to Data-to-Text solutions.
2. Data-to-text
Data-to-text NLG takes data as input and generates text as output. That’s exactly how our tool, AX Semantics, works.
Data-to-text platforms are perfect for generating product descriptions, reports, summaries, or any other type of text based on predetermined sets of data.
One of the major benefits of data-to-text NLG is its ability to generate reports that are both accurate and up-to-date. That's because data-to-text NLG systems are able to extract information from data sources and then translate it into natural language.
And if you feed the system with relevant information, you can also personalize website content
AX Semantics: Turn generic content into personalized sales pitches
Who says auto-generated content must be generic and superficial? With AX Semantics, you can exploit real-time user data to craft highly personalized product content. That way, your product descriptions become genuine conversion boosters.
See how you can grow conversions with personalized product content.
You need to know that NLG does not interfere with Google’s webmaster guidelines. These guidelines target content generated programmatically to manipulate search rankings using techniques like keyword stuffing or other automated processes.
On the other hand, the purpose of NLG tools like AX Semantics is actually to help users. NLG does NOT manipulate search rankings. The content is not generated programmatically but rather provides real value to the website visitor.
Data-to-text is the process of generating text that accurately reflects the meaning and intent of an underlying data set. At its most basic level, this involves identifying and extracting key concepts from data and organizing them into a clear narrative structure.
The system typically displays auto-generated content in a way that is easy for a human reader to understand. These include the following forms:
• Product descriptions for different web pages and eCommerce sites
• Financial reports
• Clinical study reports
• News reports for media outlets
NLG technology relies on complex methods and algorithms to interpret large amounts of data effectively.
One of the main considerations is the type of auto-generated content. Some texts might require more concise statements or summaries. On the other hand, other types of posts demand longer narratives with more complex structures and details.
In addition, different settings might have other language requirements to facilitate comprehension. For instance, your company might need to apply local terminology or translate the content.
Are you expanding to international markets? AX Semantics can help you
AX Semantics is an NLG-powered platform that generates quality content in more than 100 languages. It can even create auto-generated content in regional language variations like Austrian German or Brazilian Portuguese.
Make sure to check it out.
Your NLG system will take all these factors into account. It enables the tool to produce accurate text that effectively communicates information to readers in a human-friendly format.
Benefits of auto-generated content
The main advantages of using a tool to auto generate product descriptions are probably clear. But we want to show you that there’s more to it than you might have thought at first!
These are the biggest benefits of NLG in content creation.
1. Write high-quality product content
When it comes to product descriptions, quality is key. Not only do potential customers want to understand what a product does, but they also want to know why it's the best option on the market.
And that’s where NLG comes in.
NLG platforms like those from AX Semantics write high-quality, engaging descriptions that highlight key features and benefits of a given product. They do it based on product data, making the descriptions as accurate and helpful as possible. That is why NLG is so important for eCommerce businesses.
2. Speed up content creation
The world of online retail is very competitive, and businesses need to do everything they can to stand out from the crowd. A key part of this is creating high-quality content that accurately reflects the offered products.
But writing original descriptions can be a time-consuming process. NLG helps you by generating human-like descriptions of products.
It means you can create large volumes of high-quality content in a fraction of the time, so you are free to focus on other areas of business. NLG tools could give eCommerce businesses the edge they need to succeed in a competitive market.
3. Ensure content consistency
You control how data-to-text NLG operates, so you can set the rules of content creation. That way, you ensure content consistency.
The difference between the two types of NLG is that with data-to-text, humans configure rules and statements once in advance, and then they do not need to be checked by humans in the post-processing phase. With GPT3, human review is required in the post-production phase.
To put it simply, there is no dilemma about whether to go for automated or editorial content anymore—the former is obviously better and more efficient.
4. Search engine optimization
The goal of every eCommerce business is to attract customers, but they can’t do it without impressing search engines first. After all, reports reveal that a mere 0.78% of Google searchers click through on the second page of search results.
Your content pages must be in the top 10 if you want to increase visits and conversions.
One of the key advantages of NLG is that it can improve your search engine optimization (SEO) efforts. NLG can help you transform data into well-optimized content, so it can rank high in search engines.
5. Create content at scale
NLG tools are powerful and versatile. They can generate a wide range of product descriptions and other types of content based on user input. More importantly, they do it with minimal effort on the marketer's part.
This helps eCommerce businesses to quickly create and publish large amounts of high-quality and engaging product pages. There is no need to hire additional writers or editors anymore—NLG does it all for you at scale.
6. Reduce costs
This final advantage on our list goes hand in hand with the previous one. NLG can save you time and money compared to traditional content creation methods. Instead of hiring dozens of writers who’ll take months to create product descriptions, you can use an automation tool for quick delivery.
unique product descriptions
How to use AX Semantics to write product descriptions
We are probably a little biased—but our client stories speak for themselves. AX Semantics is an easy solution if you want to generate lots of unique product descriptions in record time
The system is based on NLG—more specifically data-to-text so that you can make the most of this revolutionary technology. The purpose of our platform is to ensure content writing scalability without interfering with the quality of your product pages.
So, how does it work? It all comes down to three simple steps for an automated content generation:
• Upload your data: The first step is to upload product-related data to the system. It allows AX Semantics to learn about your products and pinpoint information patterns.
• Content configuration: This is where you calibrate the tool to give it instruction on how to design product descriptions.
• Generate product descriptions: Now, the tool takes over to create brand new and unique product descriptions on your behalf.
In addition to automated content generation, AX Semantics also offers real-time text personalization.
The NLG process is straightforward, but you still get hundreds or thousands of high-quality product descriptions. There’s a particular reason why NLG tools like AX Semantics are so good for eCommerce stores.
Before we explain it, you should remember there are two types of NLG tools, as we already learned:
• Platforms based on GPT3
• Platforms that rely on data-to-text.
Writing tools that use the GPT3 language production system are capable of creating text. Still, they do so by pulling data from various similar contents online, imitating writing styles. As a result, these tools cannot generate the same quality of text as data-to-text NLG systems.
Meanwhile, data-to-text NLG strictly follows your data inputs to design accurate auto-generated content.
Pros and cons of automatically generated content
Now that you know how AX Semantics works, it’s time to run through the pros and cons of auto-generated content. Let’s start with the advantages of AX Semantics.
1. Personalization
Content personalization is one of the key eCommerce trends in 2022
The most significant advantage of AX Semantics is that it writes hyper-personalized product descriptions. The system analyzes user-related data in real-time to display tailored content.
AX Semantics does generate content automatically. Besides that it offers real-time content personalization!
That’s why your customers will see customized product descriptions that suit the interests of each website visitor individually.
2. Localization
One of the most challenging tasks of eCommerce stores is to internationalize their operations. After all, they have to translate even the most minor bits of content to adjust to local markets. But with AX Semantics, localization becomes just another step in the content writing process.
This tool enables multilingual content generation by following predetermined semantic rules. It allows you to localize product pages fast.
3. Minimize cart abandonment
Do you know that the average cart abandonment rate is almost 70%? It’s a staggering figure, but AX Semantics can help you minimize cart abandonment rates
Through personalization, website visitors who read tailored product content are less likely to leave your site and turn to the competitors.
4. Boost conversions
One benefit leads to the other, so you can expect NLG content to boost your conversion rate. Users who visit your website and find your content to be valuable will probably end up completing the purchase. In other words, AX Semantics will help you grow revenue long-term.
It’s impossible to create a perfect tool, so we need to mention a couple of drawbacks of AX Semantics.
We pay attention to our clients, and this is what they say about our tool:
1. The platform requires a reliable database
Data-to-text tools require a solid set of data to function properly. AX Semantics is not an exception because it can deliver the best results only if you feed the platform with credible product-related information
But if your database is unstructured, you’ll probably struggle to achieve the results you expect from NLG.
2. It takes time to get used to the platform
This is often the issue with new tools and programs, but we don’t want to neglect a common user remark. Some clients think that AX Semantics can be a bit tricky in the early stages of the deployment. One of our clients wrote:
The good thing is that our customer service is always there to assist you. If you have any doubts or don’t know how to use certain features, our agents will provide help in real-time

How do you create a product description?
A product description has to be clear and informative, stating all essential information about a given item.
A good product description should also evoke an emotional response in the reader and make them feel like they need the product. That's why you need to present the benefits of your product and its features.
Lastly, explain what sets your product apart from the competition. Why should they buy it instead of something else? If you answer this question, a reader is likely to take action and end up purchasing the product.
How do you create a unique product description?
The best way to create a unique product description is to get to know your product inside and out. What are its unique selling points? Why would someone want to buy it?
Once you understand your product well, you can start writing descriptively and focusing on its key benefits.
You should also avoid using jargon or industry terms that might not be familiar to everyone. Keep your language simple and direct, and make sure the most important information is front and center.
Besides that, don't hesitate to get creative. If your product has a quirky or interesting element, make sure to highlight that in your description.
How important is product description in every product?
Product descriptions are crucial to the success of your eCommerce business.
They play an important role in digital marketing, whether for developing an initial product concept or persuading customers to buy. They are also crucial for search engine optimization since they help potential buyers find your products more easily online.
Assuming you have a great product, compelling product descriptions can be the differentiating factor that sets your business apart from the competition and convinces shoppers to click “add to cart.”

Excessive Sleepiness: Causes, Symptoms and Treatments
Adequate sleep is vital to maintaining your well-being. It positively affects your mind, body, and emotion. This is why doctors always advise you to get a lot of rest, especially after a stressful day. However, the positive effects of sleeping turn negative when it is done excessively. Too much sleep affects your daily routines and your productivity. You are more prone to excessive sleeping if you don’t sleep for a long period and if you have bad quality sleep. It may also be due to a sleep problem or an existing medical disease.
Do you want to know more about excessive sleepiness? Read on!
What Are the Causes of Excessive Sleepiness?
The effects of oversleeping cannot be underestimated. It can affect your daily activities and decrease efficiency. However, it would help to know that excessive sleeping is relative. Adequate quantity of sleep may be different for everybody. It is generally described as a feeling of sleepiness or tiredness that persists for a day or several days. Sleep disorder is a common problem. A study review done in 2019 showed that over 10-20% of people experience oversleeping to some extent.
Excessive sleepiness can be caused by several factors. Your doctor recommends treatment based on what causes the disorder.

Valencia missed the chance to move above Real Madrid after they drew 1-1 with Athletic Bilbao, but young star Ferran Torres shone brightly for his club.
Geoffrey Kondogbia curled a sweet left foot shot into the far left corner to open the scoring, his fourth league goal since joining on loan from Inter Milan.
However, the home side hit back just after the break when Valencia failed to deal with a set piece, allowing Oscar de Marcos to equalise.
Veteran Bilbao striker Aritz Aduriz wasted an earlier chance to against score his former side from the spot, but saw his effort saved.
Is Ferran Torres next big talent?
Despite dropping 2 points, a draw at the San Mames will be seen as a point gained for Valencia. They have lost on their last 3 visits to the Basque club.
Ferran Torres showed everyone why he is one of Spain’s brightest young talents. Just a day shy of his 18th birthday, he calmly rolled the ball to Kondogbia for the opener.
As he received the ball on the right side of the 18-yard box, the defence retreated into the area. They could only watch as Ferran Torres rolled the ball to the edge of the box.
A Fourth for Kondogbia
Geoffrey Kondogbia continued his fine form at his new club by notching his 4th of the season. He has shown Inter Milan he can be a valuable player in seasons to come.
He missed the previous two games against Sociedad and Malaga through injury. However, he returned to the centre of midfield and dominated as he often does against top players.
Kondogbia could do nothing to prevent another ex-Inter player, Colombian Jeison Murillo, conceding the penalty that Aritz Aduriz had saved by Norberto Neto.
Usually reliable from the spot, Aduriz was denied as Neto leapt to his left to stop the shot.
De Marcos Levels the Game
Marcelino admitted in his pre-match press conference that his opponents were “tough to play” at the Sand Memes. The teams were level just 4 minutes into the second half.
Set piece specialist Benat sent a free-kick into the six yard box, seeing the ball cleared back. Wersatile De Marcos raced to reach it, firing into the bottom right with a first time strike.
What’s Up Next?
Valencia’s 3-game win streak comes to an end. Though they can go into their clash with free-scoring Real Betis unbeaten in 3. They are now 8 points ahead of Sevilla in fifth.
Bilbao face a trip to Sevilla at the intimidating Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan before travel to Marseille away in the first leg of their Europa last 16 clash.
They remain in 12th position with 32 points, while Valencia, who have exceeded expectations in Marcelino’s first season in charge, remain in fourth spot. Just one point behind Real Madrid.

Fracture Mechanics
Fracture is a problem that creates catastrophic failures on structures. Fracture mechanics is the field of mechanics concerned with the study of the propagation of cracks in materials. It uses methods of analytical solid mechanics to calculate the driving force on a crack and those of experimental solid mechanics to characterize the material’s resistance to fracture. The fundamentals of linear elastic fracture mechanics were established in 1960’s, and researchers turned their attention to crack-tip plasticity.
Theoretically, the stress ahead of a sharp crack tip becomes infinite and cannot be used to describe the state around a crack. Fracture mechanics is used to characterize the loads on a crack, typically using a single parameter to describe the complete loading state at the crack tip. A number of different parameters have been developed. When the plastic zone at the tip of the crack is small relative to the crack length the stress state at the crack tip is the result of elastic forces within the material and is termed linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) and can be characterized using the stress intensity factor K. Although the load on a crack can be arbitrary, in 1957 G. Irwin found any state could be reduced to a combination of three independent stress intensity factors:
• Mode I – Opening mode (a tensile stress normal to the plane of the crack),
• Mode II – Sliding mode (a shear stress acting parallel to the plane of the crack and perpendicular to the crack front), and
• Mode III – Tearing mode (a shear stress acting parallel to the plane of the crack and parallel to the crack front).
When the size of the plastic zone at the crack tip is too large, elastic-plastic fracture mechanics can be used with parameters such as the J-integral or the crack tip opening displacement.
The characterizing parameter describes the state of the crack tip which can then be related to experimental conditions to ensure similitude. Crack growth occurs when the parameters typically exceed certain critical values. Corrosion may cause a crack to slowly grow when the stress corrosion stress intensity threshold is exceeded. Similarly, small flaws may result in crack growth when subjected to cyclic loading. Known as fatigue, it was found that for long cracks, the rate of growth is largely governed by the range of the stress intensity ΔK experienced by the crack due to the applied loading. Fast fracture will occur when the stress intensity exceeds the fracture toughness of the material. The prediction of crack growth is at the heart of the damage tolerance mechanical design discipline.
The driving force for Mode I fracture is stress intensity factor K. The stress intensity factor is usually given a subscript to denote the mode of loading, i.e., KI , KII, or KIII. However, KI for mode I cracking is the most commonly used one in engineering practice.
The resistance to fracture is called fracture toughness. The fracture toughness of a material measures its ability to resist crack initiation and propagation. Several fracture toughness parameters are available, including critical stress intensity factor (KIC) in the elastic range; and in the elastic/plastic regime, the critical value of the J-integral (Jcrit), and the critical crack tip opening displacement CTOD or 𝛿crit. In practice, the J-integral and CTOD parameters are frequently converted to equivalent KIC to avoid tedious inelastic analyses.

Food waste at FHS
Maximillian Palli - The Phoenix
Anyone who has used the lunch line knows what happens; you walk in, grab your food, and try to walk away, but you get stopped by the lunch lady. She tells you to take a fruit, so you grab an orange and walk away to pay. The first trash can you walk by, you throw the orange in the trash.
Obviously, no one is eating that food once it is in the trash. This is not just a problem in the lunch line; often there are bagels in water fountains or pizza thrown on the ground. Effectively, fruit is unpackaged, put in the lunch bins, then students are transferring the fruit into trash cans. With food bank attendance soaring in the last year due to COVID-19, it all seems like a waste.
One of the easiest ways to fix the problems is to increase the selection of fruits. If people do not like any of the available fruits, they will just throw them away.
“[The fruit distribution system] is poorly executed, because there are always oranges and raisins,” senior Matthew Spangler said. “I want bananas and apples but they’re always out.”
If there were more bananas or apples, Spangler said that he would take them as his fruit and not just throw them away. The students’ tastes need to be factored in when ordering fruit.
A major issue with reviewing students’ preferences is if they are forced to take a fruit and someone checks at the end of lunch, all of the fruit will be gone. This can lead to the erroneous conclusion that all students like the food an equal amount, but checking just five minutes into lunch shows that students much prefer some menu items to others. Surveys need to be taken during lunch, during rush hour, not at the end where everything is gone.
According to cafeteria employees, students need all five major components of a meal: vegetables, fruits, grain, protein and dairy. According to both state and federal school lunch guidelines, this is the only way to ensure a healthy meal. If students do not receive all five components, whether they want them or not, schools do not get lunch subsidies, making lunches much more expensive and unsustainable. Simply, students need to take fruits in order for the school to pay for its meals.
When students throw away fruit and other food, they usually end up in the landfill, decomposing into methane and contributing to climate change. In addition, the plastic waste from the packaged apple slices creates many tons of waste per year. One potential solution is a donation box to transfer any unwanted fruit to food banks so that it gets eaten and helps the disadvantaged. Another solution is to change federal and state laws to recommendations and not laws so schools do not have to force unwanted food onto students.
The idea of forcing students to take fruit was most likely a genuine attempt to increase the health of our state and nation in general, but as the saying goes, “The road to hell is paved with good intentions.”

LE cell Phenomenon Test In Delhi
LE cell Phenomenon Test In Delhi
The LE cell test in Delhi is prescribed by doctors when they suspect the patient to be suffering from a condition known as systemic lupus erythematosus or SLE. The test is also associated with the detection of other autoimmune disorders.

About LE cell Phenomenon Test
Why is the LE cell Phenomenon Test done?
The occurrence of LE cells is a phenomenon that is mediated by neutrophils. The LE cells or Hargraves cells are detected in people suffering from the condition known as systemic lupus erythematosus. Being an autoimmune disease, the person suffering from this condition has the body’s immune system attack the healthy cells of the body thereby affecting the functioning of vital organs.
The LE cell test is prescribed when the person shows the following symptoms:
• Pain in the chest during breathing
• Sudden weight loss
• Severe headaches
• Oral ulcers that are usually painless
• Fever without any infections or causes
• Swollen lymph nodes
• Photosensitivity, especially to sunlight
• Joint pains and swelling
• A specific type of facial rash
The symptoms associated with lupus are not constant. That is, the patient can have these symptoms on an isolated basis and this can hamper the detection of
What does the LE cell Phenomenon Test measure?
The LE cells are governed by neutrophils or by macrophages. The cause of activation of these cells can be genetic or environmental changes that can trigger the formation of LE cells. Having symptoms that are similar to other diseases, the test for lupus is generally prescribed as part of a routine test when these abrupt symptoms are seen. The only assured symptom is the presence of the butterfly facial rash. That is a confirmation on the prognosis.
Apart from lupus erythematosus, the LE cell test in Delhi is also prescribed for the following conditions:
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Dermatomyositis
• Scleroderma
• Hodgkin disease the disorder.
Potential risks/side effects associated with the LE cell Phenomenon Test
The LE cells test is done by collecting blood samples from the patient. The process of blood collection is not extremely painful nor does it lead to any serious risks. When an experienced technician or phlebotomist performs the blood collection process, they know how to effectively draw blood at one go and not cause any discomfort to the person.
That said, some people might see the following side effects:
• Dizziness
• Bleeding from the collection puncture continues
• Itching around the site of blood collection
• Bruising around the site of collection
These effects are nominal and goes away with rest.

No, lupus is not a curable condition. But, when detected early it can be controlled. Treatment includes helping the patient understand the signs of a ‘flare up’ and taking proper measurements. One of the best ways to control these flares is to reduce stress.
Can lupus cause anemia?
Yes, lupus can cause anemia especially if it starts affecting the erythropoietin production in the kidney.
Are women at higher risk of getting lupus?
While lupus can affect both genders women are at a higher riskof developing the condition. This can be due to the hormonal changes but doctors are yet to provide clinically proven facts.

Interpreting the LE cell Phenomenon Test results
The test results for the LE cells test can either be positive or negative. The positive result means that the LE cells are present and treatment for the same is started. Some other tests to confirm if the person is suffering from lupus are prescribed. This test is called Antinuclear Antibody or ANA test.

Chips Ters answered
Many people are puzzled by enthusiastic fishermen. They sincerely do not understand why you can love fishing. But my brother and I are real streamers for trout and we always go fishing on weekends. For trout fishing, I order a see it here spinner and am very happy with the quality. Winter fishing is always exciting even though it's cold

To rig a fishing line, follow the given instructions:
Put the end of the fishing line through the eye of the hook, then let the end of the line go around the line back to the reel three times. Insert the end of the line into the loop that is made between the eye of the hook and the twists. Put the end of the line through the loop that was made in the preceding step, and then pull it tightly. Clip off the extra line that remains over the knot, preferably; leave around 1.8" of it.
To make a drop shot rig, follow the given steps:
Use a Palomar knot to tie a drop shot hook on the line, around 18 inches over the end, in such a way that the hook should be perpendicular to the line. Tie a drop shot weight at the tag end of the line. Insert small finesse bait on the hook.

This post is about a question:
What does longtermism recommend doing in all sorts of everyday situations?
I've been thinking (on and off) about versions of this question over the last year or two. Properly I don't want sharp answers which try to give the absolute best actions in various situations (which are likely to be extremely context dependent and perhaps also weird or hard to find), but good blueprints for longtermist decision-making in everyday situations: pragmatic guidance which will tend to produce good outcomes if followed.
The first part of the post explains why I think this is an important question to look into. The second part talks about my current thinking and some guess answers: that everyday longtermism might involve seeking to improve decision-making all around us (skewing to more important decision-making processes), while abiding by commonsense morality.
A lot of people provided some helpful thoughts in conversation or on old drafts; interactions that I remember as particularly helpful came from: Nick Beckstead, Anna Salamon, Rose Hadshar, Ben Todd, Eliana Lorch, Will MacAskill, Toby Ord. They may not endorse my conclusions, and in any case all errors, large and small, remain my own.
Motivations for the question
There are several different reasons for wanting an answer to this. The most central two are:
1. Strong longtermism says that the morally right thing to do is to make all decisions according to long-term effects. But for many many decisions it's very unclear what that means.
• At first glance the strong longtermist stance seems like it might recommend throwing away all of our regular moral intuitions (since they're not grounded in long-term effects). This could leave some dangerous gaps; we should look into whether they get rederived from different foundations, or if something else should replace them.
• More generally it just seems like if longtermism is important we should seek a deep understanding of it, and for that it's good to look at it from many angles (and everyday decisions are a natural and somewhat important class).
2. Having good answers to the question of everyday longtermism might be very important for the memetics / social dynamics of longtermism.
• People encountering and evaluating an idea that seems like it's claiming broad scope of applicability will naturally examine it from lots of angles.
• Two obvious angles are "what does this mean for my day-to-day life?" and "what would it look like if everyone was on board with this?".
• Having good and compelling answers to these could be helpful for getting buy-in to the ideas.
• I think an action-guiding philosophy is at an advantage in spreading if there are lots of opportunities for people to practice it, to observe when others are/aren’t following it, and to habituate themselves to a self-conception as someone who adheres to it.
• For longtermism to get this advantage, it needs an everyday version. That shouldn't just provide a fake/token activity, but meaningful practice that is substantively continuous with the type of longtermist decision-making which might have particularly large/important long-term impacts.
• If longtermism got to millions or tens of millions of supporters -- as seems plausible on timescales of a decade or three -- it could be importantly bottlenecked on what kind of action-guiding advice to give people.
A third more speculative motivation is that the highest-leverage opportunities may be available only at the scale of individual decisions, so having better heuristics to help identify them might be important. The logic is outlined in the diagram below. Suppose opportunities naturally arise at many different levels of leverage (value out per unit of effort in) and scales (how much effort they can absorb before they’re saturated). In an ecosystem with lots of people seeking the best ways to help others, the large+good opportunities will all be identified and saturated. The best large opportunities left will be merely fine. For opportunities with small scale, however, there isn’t enough total value in exploiting them for the market to reliably have identified them. So there may be very high leverage opportunities left for individuals to pick up.
Black dots represent opportunities for altruistic impact.
Of course this diagram is oversimplifying. It is an open question how efficient the altruistic market is even at large scales. It’s also an open question what the distribution of opportunities looks like to begin with. But even though it’s likely not this clean, the plausibility of the dynamic applying to some degree gives me reason to want decent guidance for longtermist action that can be applied on the everyday scale.
Interactions with patient/urgent longtermism
All of these reasons are stronger from a patient longtermist perspective than an urgent one. The more it's the case that the crucial moments for determining the trajectory of the future will occur quite soon, the less value there is in finding a good everyday longtermist perspective (versus just trying to address the crucial problems directly). I guess it has very limited leverage on anything in the next decade or two; is very important for critical junctures that are more than fifty or a hundred years away; and somewhere in the middle for timescales in the middle.
I think as a community we should have a portfolio which is spread across different timescales, and everyday longtermism seems like a really important question for the patient end of the spectrum.
Thoughts on some tentative answers
It seems likely to me that good blueprints will involve both some proxy goals and some other heuristics to follow (proxies have some advantages but also some disadvantages; I could elaborate on the thinking here but I don't have a super crisp way of expressing it and I'm not sure anyone will be that interested).
Good candidates for proxy goals would ideally:
1. Be good (in expectation) for the long-term future;
2. Specify something that is broad enough that many decision-situations have some interaction with the proxy;
3. Be robust, such that slight perturbations of the goal or the world still leave something good to aim for;
4. Have some continuity with good goals in more strategic (less "everyday") situations.
Cultivating good decision-making
The proxy goal that I (currently) feel best about is improving decision-making. I don't know how to quantify the goal exactly, but it should put more weight on bigger improvements; on more important decision-makers; and on the idea of good decision-making itself being important to foster.
An elevator pitch for a blueprint for longtermism which naturally comes with an everyday component might be something like:
We help decision-makers care for the right things, and make good choices.
We care about the long term, but it's mostly too far off to perceive clearly what to do. So our chief task is to set up the world of tomorrow for success by having people/organisations well placed to make good decisions (in the senses both of aiming for good things, and doing a good job of that).
We practice this at every scale, with attention to how much the case matters.
At the local level, everyone can contribute to this by nudging towards good decision-making wherever they see opportunities: at work; in their community; with family and friends. Collectively, we work to identify and then take particularly good opportunities for improving decision-making. This often means aiming at improving decision-making in particularly important domains, but can also mean looking for opportunities to make improvements at large scale. Currently, much of our work is in preventing global catastrophes; improving thinking about how to prioritise; and helping expose people to the ideas of longtermism.
For background on why I think cultivating good decision-making is robustly good for the long-term, see my posts on the "web of virtue thesis" and good altruistic decision-making as a basin in idea space.
Overall I feel reasonably good about this as a candidate blueprint for longtermism:
• It's basically a single coherent thing:
• It connects up to philosophical motivations and down to action-guidance
• The proxy of “good decision-making” is basically one I got to by thinking with the timeless lens on longtermism
• It contextualises existing EA work:
• Spreading ideas of EA/longtermism are particularly important in the world today because these are crucial pieces missing from most decision-making
• When we have good foresight over existential risks, these become key challenges of our time, and it becomes obviously good decision-making to work on them
• There are opportunities to help improve decision-making on all sorts of different scales including the everyday, so there are lots of chances for people to get their hands dirty trying to help things
Here are some examples of everyday longtermism in pursuit of this proxy:
• Alice votes for a political candidate whom she has relative trust in the character of (even though she disagrees with some of their policies), and encourages others to do the same.
• Slowly contributing to the message "you need to be principled to be given power", which both:
• makes it more likely that important decision-makers are principled/trustworthy
• reinforces social incentives to be of good character
• Bob goes to work as a primary school teacher, and helps the children to perceive themselves as moral actors, as well as rewarding clear thinking.
• Clara is a manager in the tech industry, and encourages a mindset on her team of "do things properly, and for the right reasons" rather than just chasing short-term results. She talks about this at conferences.
• Diya works as a science journalist, and tries to give readers a clear picture of what we do and don't understand about how the future might go.
• Elmo hosts dinner parties, and exhibits curiosity about guests’ opinions, particularly on topics that touch on how the world may unfold over decades, warmly but robustly pushing back on parts that don’t make sense to him. He occasionally talks about his views on the importance of the long-term, and why it means it’s particularly valuable to encourage good thinking.
Abide by commonsense morality
While pursuing the proxy goal of improving decision-making, I would also recommend following general precepts of commonsense morality (e.g. don't mislead people; try to be reliable; be considerate of the needs of others).
There are a few different reasons that I think commonsense morality is likely to be largely a good idea (expanded below):
1. It's generated by a similar optimisation process as would ideally produce "commonsense longtermist morality"
2. It can serve as a safeguard to help avoid the perils of naive utilitarianism
3. It's an expensive-to-fake signal of good intent, so can help make longtermism look good
I don't think that commonsense morality will give on-the-nose the right recommendations. I am interested in the project of working out which pieces of commonsense morality can be gently put down, as well as which new ideas should be added to the corpus. However, I think it it will get a lot of things basically right, and so it's a good place to start and consider deviations slowly and carefully.
Similar optimisation processes [speculative]
Commonsense morality seems like it's been memetically selected to produce good outcomes for societies in which it’s embedded, when systematically implemented at local level.
We'd like a "commonsense longtermist morality", something selected to produce good outcomes for larger future society, when systematically implemented at local level. Unfortunately finding that might be difficult. There's a lot of texture to commonsense morality; we might expect that the ideal version of commonsense longtermist morality would have similar amounts of texture. And we can't just run an evolutionary process to find a good version.
However, in an ideal world we might be able to run such an evolutionary process -- letting people take lots of different actions, magically observing which turned out well or badly for the long-term, and then selectively boosting the types of behaviour that produced good results. That hypothetical process would be somewhat similar to the real process that has produced commonsense morality. The outputs of those processes would be optimised for slightly different things, but I expect there would be a significant degree of alignment, since both outcomes benefit from generally-good-&-fair decisions, and are hurt by selfishness, corruption, etc.
Safeguarding against naive utilitarianism
Roughly speaking, I think people sometimes think of the relationship between EA and traditional everyday morality as something like differing points on a spectrum:
I think that these two dimensions are actually more orthogonal than in opposition (the spectrum only appears when you think about a tug of war about what “good” is):
Scores are stylised representations of how much good people end up doing. Being strategic leads you to working in higher-leverage domains, which makes the magnitude of your effects bigger.
Utilitarianism (along with other optimising behaviours) gets kind of a bad reputation. I think this is significantly because naive application can cause large and real harms, when the mechanisms of harm are indirect and so easy to sometimes lose sight of. I think that commonsense morality can serve as a backstop which stops a lot of these bad effects.
We might think of commonsense morality as a memetic force exerting upwards pressure in this diagram. What we might call "strategic longtermism" is a memetic force exerting rightwards pressure (which seems much more undersupplied in society as a whole). But given the asymmetry between the top-left and bottom-right quadrants, we'd ideally like a memetic force which routes via the top-left. I think this provides some reason to bundle (something in the vicinity of) commonsense morality in as part of the memetic package of longtermism. And then since (as I argued above) part of the purpose of having a good blueprint for everyday longtermism is to help the memetics of it by giving people to practice, this should presumably be part of that blueprint. (And since commonsense morality is already something like a known quantity, it doesn't cost a great deal of complexity to include it as part of the message.)
Signalling value
As longtermism grows as a cultural force, it seems likely that people encountering it will use a variety of different means to judge what they think of it. Some people will try to examine the merits of the philosophical arguments; some people will consider whether the actions it recommends seem to make sense; some people will question the motivations of the people involved in promoting it.
I think that a lot of parts of commonsense morality stand in the way of corruption. This means that abiding by commonsense morality is relatively cheap for actors who are not self-interested, and relatively expensive for actors who are primarily self-interested. So it's a costly signal of good intent. I think this will help to make it seem legitimate and attractive to people.
To be clear, if I thought abiding by commonsense morality was otherwise a bad idea, this consideration would be quite unlikely to tip it over into worthwhile. But I think it's anyway a good idea, and this consideration provides reason to prioritise it even somewhat beyond what would be suggested by its own merits.
Closing thoughts
I've laid out a case for considering the question of everyday longtermism. I feel confident that this is an important question, and think it deserves quite a bit of attention from the community.
I've also given my current picture of what seems like a good blueprint for everyday longtermism. I'd be surprised if that's going in totally the wrong direction, but I'd love to hear arguments that it is. On the other hand I think it's quite possible that the high-level picture is slightly off, very likely that I've made some errors of judgement in the details, and nigh-certain that there's a lot more detail that could productively be hashed out.

Love it! And I love the series of posts you had written lately.
I think that the suggestions here, and most of the arguments, should apply to "Everyday EA " which isn't necessarily longtermistic. I'd be interested in your thoughts about where exactly should we make a distinction between everyday longtermist actions and non-longtermist everyday actions.
Some further suggestions:
1. Be more cooperative. (There are arguments about increasing cooperation, especially from people working on reducing S-risks, but I couldn't find any suitable resource in a brief search)
2. Take a strong stance against narrow moral circles.
3. Have a good pitch prepared about longtermism and EA broadly. Balance confidence with adequate uncertainty.
4. Have a well-structured methodology for getting interested acquaintances more involved with EA.
5. Help friends in EA/longtermism more.
6. Strengthen relationships with friends who have a high potential to be highly influential in the future.
I share the view that that could be a good suggestion for an action/proxy in line with everyday longtermism.
Two collections of resources on cooperation (in the relevant sense) are the Cooperation & Coordination tag and (parts of) EA reading list: moral uncertainty, moral cooperation, and values spreading.
Thanks! I didn't see any post under that tag that had the type of argument I had in mind, but I think that this article by Brian Tomasik was what I intended (which I found now from the reading list you linked).
Yeah, I should've said "resources on cooperation (including in the relevant sense)", or something like that. The tag's scope is a bit broad/messy (though I still think it's useful - perhaps unsurprisingly, given I made it :D).
Yea, I think the tag is great! I was surprised that I couldn't find a resource from the forum, not that the tag wasn't comprehensive enough :)
It might be nice if someone would collect resources outside the forum and publish each one as a forum linkpost so that people could comment and vote on them and they'd be archived in the forum.
I've often thought pretty much exactly the same thought, but have sometimes held back because I don't see that done super often and thus worried it'd be weird or that there was some reason not to. Your comment has made me more inclined to just do it more often.
Though I do wonder where the line should be. E.g., it'd seem pretty weird to just try to link post every single journal article on nuclear war which I found useful.
Maybe it's easier to draw the line if this is mostly limited to posts by explicitly EA people/orgs? Then we aren't opening the door to just trying to linkpost the entire internet :D
Yea, I don't know. I think that it may even be worthwhile to linkpost every such journal article if you also write your notes on these and cross-link different articles, but I agree that it would be weird. I'm sure that there must be a better way for EA to coordinate on such knowledge building and management.
(Partly prompted by this thread, I've made a question post on whether pretty much all content that's EA-relevant and/or created by EAs should be (link)posted to the Forum.)
Some further suggestions:
2. Take a strong stance against narrow moral circles.
5. Help friends in EA/longtermism more.
I basically like all of these. I think there might be versions which could be bad, but they seem like a good direction to be thinking in.
I'd love to see further exploration of these -- e.g. I think any of your six suggestions could deserve a top-level post going into the weeds (& ideally reporting on experiences from trying to implement it). I feel most interested in #3, but not confidently so.
Gidon Kadosh, from EA Israel, is drafting a post with a suggested pitch for EA :)
I agree that quite a bit of the content seems not to be longtermist-specific. But I was approaching it from a longtermist perspective (where I think the motivation is particularly strong), and I haven't thought it through so carefully from other angles.
I think the key dimension of "longtermism" that I'm relying on is the idea that the longish-term (say 50+ years) indirect effects of one's actions are a bigger deal in expectation than the directly observable effects. I don't think that that requires e.g. any assumptions about astronomically large futures. But if you thought that such effects were very small compared to directly observable effects, then you might think that the best everyday actions involved e.g. saving money or fundraising for charities you had strong reason to believe were effective.
Hmm. There are many studies on "friend of a friend" relationships (say this on how happiness propagates through the friendship network). I think that it would be interesting to research how some moral behaviors or beliefs propagate through the friendship networks (I'd be surprised if there isn't a study on the effects of a transition to a vegetarian diet, say). Once we have a reasonable model of how that works we could make a basic analysis of the impact of such daily actions. (Although I expect some non-linear effects that would make this very complicated)
While I very much liked this post overall, I think I feel some half-formed scepticism or aversion to some of the specific ideas/examples.
In particular, when reading your list of "examples of everyday longtermism in pursuit of this proxy", I found myself feeling something like the following:
• These actions do seem net positive, but also probably much less positive than some other things that could be done even by "regular people', even once there are millions or tens of millions of longtermists. So I would be happy about people doing these things, but I also feel a bit worried that pointing to them as good examples would reduce how often the more valuable actions are done.
• This could occur because individual people then spend too much time/energy trying to do the sort of actions in those examples, reducing the time/energy they devote to higher value actions
• Or it could occur via the package of EA/longtermist ideas itself becoming "diluted"
• EA/longtermism come to be seen too much as "the movement promoting actions like [those examples]". This could reduce how much it inclines new people towards higher value actions. It could also perhaps reduce how much it attracts certain people who could be quite impactful but wouldn't be excited by the "diluted" version of the movement.
• See also this and this
• Or it could occur via a psychological process along the lines of people feeling they've hit their quota from altruism once they've done the sort of things in those examples, and thus not being motivated to do more/other things
• I seem to recall that there's at least some evidence that something like this happens in the context of climate change: something like that, if people take small personal actions, that then reduces their inclination to do other things, even if the other things would be more important
• But I can't remember where I read this, and I don't know if it was just one study vs being settled science
• This all seems more likely/worrisome given that, compared to some higher value actions people could've taken, the sort of actions in your examples are things that are probably easier to do, closer to what people might've done anyway, and more likely to make one feel virtuous/proud (given that they more obviously align with commonsense morality)
But I'm not sure how important these worries are. And maybe they can all be readily addressed just through careful choices of examples, avoiding emphasising the examples too much/in the wrong way, also mentioning other higher value activities, etc.
It might be interesting to compare that to everyday environmentalism or everyday antispeciesism. EAs have already thought about these areas a fair bit and have said interesting things about in the past.
In both of these areas, the following seems to be the case:
1. donating to effective nonprofits is probably the best way to help at this point,
2. some other actions look pretty good (avoiding unnecessary intercontinental flights and fuel-inefficient cars, eating a plant-based diet),
3. other actions are making a negligibly small difference per unit of cost (unplugging your phone charger when you're not using it, avoiding animal-based food additives),
4. there are some harder-to-quantify aspects that could be very good or not (activism, advocacy, etc.),
5. there are some virtues that seem helpful for longer-term, lasting change (becoming more aware of how products you consume are made and what the moral cost is, learning to see animals as individuals with lives worth protecting).
EAs are already thinking a lot about optimizing #1 by default, so perhaps the project of "everyday longtermism" could be about exploring whether actions fall within #2 or #3 or #4 (and what to do about #4), and what the virtues corresponding to #5 might look like.
I appreciate the pushback!
I have two different responses (somewhat in tension with each other):
1. Finding "everyday" things to do will necessitate identifying what's good to do in various situations which aren't the highest-value activity an individual can be undertaking
• This is an important part of deepening the cultural understanding of longtermism, rather than have all of the discussion be about what's good to do in a particular set of activities that's had strong selection pressure on it
• This is also important for giving people inroads to be able to practice different aspects of longtermism
• I think it's a bit like how informal EA discourse often touches on how to do everyday things efficiently (e.g. "here are tips for batching your grocery shopping") -- it's not that these are the most important things to be efficient about, but that all-else-equal it's good, and it's also very good to give people micro-scale opportunities to put efficiency-thinking into practice
• Note however that my examples would be better if they had more texture:
• Discussion of the nuance of better or worse versions of the activities discussed could be quite helpful for conveying the nuance of what is good longtermist action
• To the extent that these are far from the highest value activities those people could be undertaking, it seems important to be up-front about that: keeping tabs on what's relatively important is surely an important part of the (longtermist) EA culture
2. I'm not sure how much I agree with "probably much less positive than some other things that could be done even by "regular people', even once there are millions or tens of millions of longtermists"
• I'd love to hear your ideas for things that you think would be much more positive for those people in that world
• My gut feeling is that they are at the level of "competitive uses of time/attention (for people who aren't bought into reorienting their whole lives) by the time there are tens of millions of longtermists"
• It seems compatible with that feeling that there could be some higher-priority things for them to be doing as well -- e.g. maybe some way of keeping immersed in longtermist culture, by being a member of some group -- but that those reach saturation or diminishing returns
• I think I might be miscalibrated about this; think it would be easier to discuss with some concrete competition on the table
• Of course to the extent that these actually are arguably competitive actions, if I believe my first point, maybe I should have been looking for even more everyday situations
• e.g. could ask "what is the good longtermist way to approach going to the shops? meeting a romantic partner's parents for the first time? deciding how much to push yourself to work when you're feeling a bit unwell?"
Ah, your first point makes me realise that at times I mistook the purpose of this "everyday longtermism" idea/project as more similar to finding Task Ys than it really is. I now remember that you didn't really frame this as "What can even 'regular people' do, even if they're not in key positions or at key junctures?" (If that was the framing, I might be more inclined to emphasise donating effectively, as well as things like voting effectively - not just for politicians with good characters - and meeting with politicians to advocate for effective policies.)
Instead, I think you're talking about what anyone can do (including but not limited to very dedicated and talented people) in "everyday situations", perhaps alongside other, more effective actions.
I think at times I was aware of that, but times I forgot it. That's probably just on me, rather than an issue with the clarity of this post or project. But I guess perhaps misinterpretations along those lines are a failure mode to look out for and make extra efforts to prevent?
As for concrete examples, off the top of my head, the key thing is just focusing more on donating more and more effectively. This could also include finding ways to earn or save more money. I think that those actions are accessible to large numbers of people, would remain useful at scale (though with diminishing returns, of course), and intersect with lots of everyday situations (e.g., lots of everyday situations could allow opportunities to save money, or to spend less time on X in order to spend more time working out where to donate).
To be somewhat concrete: In a scenario with 5 million longtermists, if we choose a somewhat typical teacher who wants to make the world better, I think they'd do more good by focusing a bit more on donating more and more effectively than by focusing a bit more on trying to cause their students to see themselves as moral actors and think clearly. (This is partly based on me expecting that it's really hard to have a big, lasting impact on those variables as a teacher, which in turn in is loosely informed by research I read and experiences I had as a teacher. Though I do expect one could have some impact on those variables, and I think for some people it's worth spending some effort on that.)
That said, I think it makes sense to use other examples as well as donating more and more effectively. Especially now that I remember what the purpose of this project actually is. But I am a bit surprised that donating more and more effectively wasn't one of the examples in your list? Is there a reason for that?
I feel like that's a bit different. If I get a dedicated EA to do everyday things more efficiently, it's fairly obvious how that could result in more hours or dollars going towards very high impact activities. (I don't expect every hour/dollar saved to go towards very high impact activities, but a fair portion might.)
Perhaps you mean that EAs sometimes talk about this stuff in e.g. a Medium article aimed at the general public, perhaps partly with the intention of showing people how EA-style thinking is useful in a domain they already care about and thereby making them more likely to move towards EA in future. I do see how that is similar to the everyday longtermism project and examples.
But still, in that case the increased everyday efficiency of these people could fairly directly cause more hours/dollars to go towards high impact activities, if these people do themselves become EAs/EA-aligned. So it still feels a bit different.
I'm not sure how important or valid any of these points are, and, as noted, overall I really like the ideas in this post.
I believe the framing in the 80,000 Hours podcast was something like when we run out of targeted things to do. But if we include global warming, depending on your temperature increase limit, we could easily spend $1 trillion per year. If people in developed countries make around $30,000 a year and they donate 10% of that, that would require about 300 million people. And of course there are many other global catastrophic risks. So I think it's going to be a long time before we run out of targeted things to do. But it could be good to do some combination of everyday longtermism and targeted interventions.
Agree - I think an interesting challenge is "when does this become better than donating 10% to the top marginal charity?"
I spent a little while thinking about this. My guess is that of the activities I list:
• Alice and Bob's efforts look comparable to donating (in external benefit/effort) when the longtermist portfolio is around $100B-$1T/year
• Clara's efforts looks comparable to donating when the longtermist portfolio is around $1B-$10B/year
• Diya's efforts look comparable to donating when the longtermist portfolio is around $10B-$100B/year
• Elmo's efforts are harder to say because they're closer to directly trying to grow longtermist support, so the value diminishes as the existing portfolio gets larger just as for donations, and it more depends on underlying quality
All of those numbers are super crude and I might well disagree with myself if I came back later and estimated again. They also depend on lots of details (like how good the individuals are at executing on those strategies).
Perhaps most importantly, they're excluding the internal benefits -- if these activities are (as I suggest) partly good for practicing some longtermist judgement, then I'd really want to see them as a complement to donation rather than just a competitor.
I really liked this post - both a lot of the specific ideas expressed, and the general style of thinking and communication used.
Vague example of the general style of thinking and communication seeming useful: When reading the "Safeguarding against naive utilitarianism" section, I realised that the basic way you described and diagrammed the points there were applicable to a very different topic I'd thought about recently, and provided a seemingly useful additional lens for that.
A few things that parts of this post made me think of:
• Can the EA community copy Teach for America? (Looking for Task Y)
• I think the question of what longtermism recommends doing in all sorts of everyday situations probably overlaps a lot with, though is somewhat distinct from, the question of what a good Task Y is.
• Improving the future by influencing actors' benevolence, intelligence, and power
• (Disclaimer: Written by me)
• I think that that post could be seen as providing a useful framework/set of proxies for thinking about what longtermism recommends doing, which are applicable for anything from everyday scenarios to a smaller class of higher leverage scenarios
• I also think that the framework aligns with or complements some of your points and examples.
• E.g., you note that someone moving towards being more strategic without moving towards being more virtuous could substantially increase the harm they do, since it might move them towards working in higher-leverage domains.
• My post somewhat similarly notes that increasing an actor's "intelligence" without increasing their "benevolence" could be harmful if the actor is below some threshold of benevolence, partly for a reason similar to the one you give, and partly because it might make the actor more effective in pursuing their harmful-in-expectation plan (not just changing what domain they make plans in).
• E.g., you give as an example "Bob goes to work as a primary school teacher, and helps the children to perceive themselves as moral actors, as well as rewarding clear thinking."
• This dovetails with the idea that it's fairly robustly good to increase actors' benevolence, as well as often good to increase their intelligence, especially if that's packaged with increases to their benevolence.
• Illegible impact is still impact
• I expect that many "everyday longtermist" actions would have relatively illegible impacts, due to being quite local, specific, or small-scale
• Thus, everyday longtermism might be more attractive and satisfying if combined with the general principle that illegible impact is still impact.
• Are we neglecting education? Philosophy in schools as a longtermist area
• That post seems to dovetail with some of the principles and examples you mention.
• (Though I'm a bit skeptical of ideas in this direction, for reasons I expressed in comments on that post and will express in another comment on this post.)
• The Secret of Our Success
• Your section on "Similar optimisation processes [speculative]" reminded me of some points emphasised in that book, such as (from memory) that:
• Historically, humans haven't so much skilfully created institutions, norms, beliefs, etc. tailored to achieving certain objectives, but rather somewhat randomly created a vast array of institutions, norms, beliefs, etc., with some then surviving and spreading
• It is therefore the case that "culture" is "smarter" than individual humans
• People often don't understand why or how the institutions etc. that they're used to achieve certain objectives, and might not be able to see the point of some components that actually are important. So people tend to just replicate whole packages, rather than picking and choosing components. And this is probably usually best overall, even if it means people replicate unnecessary components.
I really appreciate you highlighting these connections with other pieces of thinking -- a better version of my post would have included more of this kind of thing.
This felt like I was reading my own thoughts (albeit better-articulated, and with lovely diagrams).
For a long time, I've been convinced that one of the community's greatest assets was "a collection of some of the kindest/most moral people in the [local area]". In my experience, people in the community tend to "walk the walk": They are kind, cooperative, and truth-seeking even outside their EA work.
Examples include:
• All the COVID posts we saw well before the pandemic went mainstream -- not just from people trying to show off with good forecasting, but from people who just wanted to hand out lots of practical advice.
• The detailed, friendly Intercom messages I get from people who notice errors or typos on the Forum or CEA's other websites.
• The small crowd of people who clustered around me and some other EA Global volunteers when we were hauling heavy items to the conference, everyone clamoring to share a bit of our burden. (Does this sort of thing happen at Comic-Con? Davos?)
• The people in our extended Twitter community who poke at each other with routine fact-checks -- again, not in a "gotcha!" or insulting way, but matter-of-factly, under the assumption that everyone involved wants to report information as accurately as they can.
• The way that lots of our community members take extra effort to write up personal decisions/habits they find useful (e.g. 80,000 Hours employees' lists of useful things they've bought, Max Carpendale's recommendations for RSI treatment)
I think that one of the best ways an average person can support EA, even if they can't easily change their career or donate very much, is to be a kind, helpful figure in the lives of those around them:
"You're so nice, Susan!"
"I just try to help people as much as I can!"
(I plan to publish a post on this cluster of ideas at some point.)
Mostly, I've been thinking about the social/movement growth benefits of the community having a ton of nice people, but I agree that such behavior also seems likely to aid in our uncovering good ways to make good decisions and developing good moral systems for long-term impact.
On a related note, I often refer back to these words of Holden Karnofsky:
Brainstorming some concrete examples of what everyday longtermism might look like:
> Alice is reviewing a CV for an applicant. The applicant does not meet the formal requirements for the job, but Alice wants to hire them anyway. Alice visualices the hundreds of people making a similar decision to hers. She would be ok with hiring this specific applicant, because she trusts her instincts a lot. But she would not trust 100 people in a similar position to make the right choice; ignorning the recruiting guidelines might disadadvantage minorities in a illegible way. She decides that the best would be if everyone chose to just follow the procedure, so she chooses to forego her intuition to favor better decision making overall.
> Beatrice is offered a job as a Machine Learning engineer to help the police with some automated camera monitoring. Before deciding whether to accept, she seeks out open criticism of that line of work, and tries to imagine what are some likely consequences of developing that kind of technology, both positive and negative. After doing a balance she realizes that while it will most likely be positive there is a plausible chance that it will enable really bad situations, and rejects the job offer.
> Carol reads an interesting article. She wants to share it in social media. She could spend some effort paraphrasing the key ideas in the article, or just share the link. She has internalized that spending one minute summarizing key ideas might well be worth a lot of time saved to her friends who otherwise could use her summary to decide whether to read the whole article. Out of habit she summarizes the article as best as she can, making it clear who she genuinely thinks would benefit from reading the article.
You argue that some guidance about "What does longtermism recommend doing in all sorts of everyday situations?" could help people become inclined towards and motivated by EA/longtermism. You also argue that aligning/packaging longtermism with (aspects of) commonsense morality could help achieve a similar objective, partly via signalling good things about longtermists/longtermism in a way that's expensive to fake.
I agree with these points, and might add two somewhat related points:
• These things could also help prevent people from becoming inclined against, or even hostile to - EA/longtermism
• Here my thinking is influenced by your own post on How valuable is movement growth?
• So I imagine you already had this in mind. But at least to me, it didn't seem that this point was made very explicit in this post (which if fair enough - you made a lot of other points already!)
• One reason this seems important is that it seems plausible that "the movement might plateau at a wide range of sizes, depending on how well-perceived it is" (quoting from your post)
• And levels of inclination against/hostility towards the movement at relatively early stages might play a key role in what size the movement plateaus at
• This seems to provide an extra push in favour of thinking more about this "everyday longtermism" stuff now, while the movement is still relatively small, so we avoid salting the earth by spreading in a form that will turn some people off (e.g., by seeming to lack practical guidance, be elitist, or fly in the face of commonsense morality)
• Aspects of commonsense morality could also serve as expensive-to-fake signals that we are the kinds of people/orgs/communities that can be trusted and cooperated with (not just joined)
• Vague example of where this could be relevant: Let's say we and some scientific or political community could each benefit from mutual cooperation. But in the short-term, we might each individually benefit from defecting (e.g., to save resources) while the other party cooperates. Credible signals of trustworthiness and cooperativeness might then be necessary for getting the other party to cooperate with us.
Thanks, I agree with both of those points.
In this 2017 post Emily Tench talks about "The extraordinary value of ordinary norms", as (I think) she did while in an internship at CEA and where she got feedback and comments from Owen and others.
i feel interested in how attention interacts with this. if we are able to pay more attention (to our bodies, to others, to the world around us), are we able to make better decisions than we would otherwise? would our actions, with this extra information, mean less harm needed to be undone?
The way I see this argument in this post is that you pick out a value/ capacity which you think would be especially desirable for the future to hold- in this case "good decision-making"- and then track back to the individual acts which might help propagate it.
If this is the correct model of the argument, might it be the case that more narrowly defined values/capacities are more memetically strong and morally robust? In my opinion many aspects of "good decision-making" might lead to worse outcomes- for example the focus on character in politicians mentioned above might be present in the best possible worlds but in many nearer possible worlds it is a failed proxy which leads to politicians selected because they seem reliable rather than because they have the best policies. Or perhaps many people who learn a few decision-making skills become over confident and stray into a naive version of the goal. In contrast, more finite goals such as "abolish factory farming", "promote anti-racism" are (in my opinion) less likely to lead to false proxies and clearly propagate along social networks because they incorporate their own ends. Not every aspect of an imperfect decision-making practice is bad or leads to bad outcomes, but with more narrow goals like those mentioned above, falling short of the goals is always bad. My impression is that this is a sign of a better proxy for what is good.
I'd love to know whether people think this is on the right track- I don't know very much about the strength of the "good decision-making" goal so it would be great to hear more about its strengths.

Designer: floating window as full featured windows
Hi guys,
Could we have floating windows (eg. popped out Tag Browser, or Project Browser) as full featured windows (ie. maximizable), like the type of windows used for Component Scripting in Vision? The later, I can manage using Microsoft PowerToys, the former I can’t and I often get them stuck partially out of bounds on my second monitor and then I have to use Reset Panels.
On Windows 10*
After additional testing:
In the state below, I can use Window Snapping (Win + Left | Right) to move the window, and PowerToys works, but I need to put two floating windows together to create such a window. It could use the maximize button too.
In this state however, nothing works: not Window snapping, and neither PowerToys. If it goes out of bounds, I need to Reset Panels.

Track Delay improvements
Hi there,
Track delay in milliseconds is a useful feature, but it would be even better if the (pre)delay could be adjusted in choice of ms, samples, ppq, and maybe even SMPTE. Toggling between the three should retain input values, for example: if I delayed a track by 10 milliseconds, then switch to ppq, the amount of delay should stay the same but now the new relative value in ppq is displayed.
Basically, track delay should be able to mirror the different settings of the timeline (bars&beats, time, samples, timecode).

Reasons For Gifting Fruit Basket
Reasons For Gifting Fruit Basket
Gifts are a special way to tell someone that they are valued and loved. Gifts are a token of appreciation and love. It brightens the day of the recipient and makes them feel loved. There goes a lot of thought in deciding what to gift someone. While deciding the gift, one should consider the likes and dislikes of the person to whom the gift will be sent. In addition to that, one can also send a personalized gift to embrace the special connection and bond that the two people share.
While many things can be gifted, a basket of fresh fruits can also be a good gift. It will contain a basket of fresh fruits that the recipient would enjoy. While choosing fresh fruits for the gift one should think about differentiating flavors, tones, and surfaces. For example, succulent oranges, fresh apples, tart cherries, and sweet grapes make for a sound and delightful organic combination. However, by adding a colorful thing like a pineapple might have a style remainder, it is in every case better to incorporate fresh fruits that can be handily eaten raw, similar to a pear or kiwi. Thus, while preparing a fruit basket, it needs to be ensured that the color and tones of all the fruits are similar so that they go well with each other and the basket look presentable. Fruits are easily available everywhere which makes them an ideal gifting option. Fruit gift baskets UK and other parts of the country can be easily found and sent to loved ones and they can be appreciated.
There are various reasons why the fruit basket should be preferred as a gifting option-
• Regardless of whether buying them for associates, business customers, or relatives, the fruit basket can be sent to anyone and anywhere. It suits all occasions and is a great gifting option. If one wants to send it on a later date, the retailer or the dealer can be given the instructions and the gift will be sent to the right person on the right day. Thus, a simple fruits basket can be used for any occasion.
• Everybody knows that eating fresh fruits is healthy. Thus, when a basket of fruits is gifted, a healthy eating option is given to the recipient. It is better than gifting fatty food which is unhealthy for health. Fruits will be readily accepted by the recipient and they will enjoy the gift.
• Another advantage of gifting a basket of fruits is that they have a greater shelf life except few. This makes them an appropriate gift. The gift can be used and enjoyed by the person over few days. Thus, the greater shelf life of few fruits is also another reason that makes them a perfect gift.
Thus, it can be concluded that fruit baskets make a good choice. There are vendors almost everywhere in the world who help in sending customized fruit baskets to loved ones. Fruit basket gifts UK and other parts of the country can be easily found.

Patriarchy poisons everything
This is Franklin Graham, evangelical leader of the Southern Baptist convention, son of Billy Graham, yesterday, the 23rd of May. He’s got his priorities.
What’s somewhat surprising about this is that the day before, the Washington Post broke the news of a major scandal among the Southern Baptists. You’d think this should be a 5-alarm crisis for the evangelical leadership.
Leaders in the Southern Baptist Convention on Sunday released a major third-party investigation that found that sex abuse survivors were often ignored, minimized and “even vilified” by top clergy in the nation’s largest Protestant denomination.
The findings of nearly 300 pages include shocking new details about specific abuse cases and shine a light on how denominational leaders for decades actively resisted calls for abuse prevention and reform. They also lied to Southern Baptists over whether they could maintain a database of offenders to prevent more abuse when top leaders were secretly keeping a private list for years.
The report — the first investigation of its kind in a massive Protestant denomination like the SBC — is expected to send shock waves into a conservative Christian community that has had intense internal battles over how to handle sex abuse. The 13 million-member denomination, along with other religious institutions in the United States, has struggled with declining membership for the past 15 years. Its leaders have long resisted comparisons between its sexual abuse crisis and that of the Catholic Church, saying the total number of abuse cases among Southern Baptists was small.
Somehow, I don’t think the campaign to bring back McDonald’s fried apple pies is going to be an adequate distraction from the bad news.
Franklin, and the rest of the world, might want to read that 300 page report. It begins…
For almost two decades, survivors of abuse and other concerned Southern Baptists have been contacting the Southern Baptist Convention (“SBC”) Executive Committee (“EC”) to report child molesters and other abusers who were in the pulpit or employed as church staff. They made phone calls, mailed letters, sent emails, appeared at SBC and EC meetings, held rallies, and contacted the press…only to be met, time and time again, with resistance, stonewalling, and even outright hostility from some within the EC.
It’s a familiar story that we’ve seen again and again. Women are harassed, they report the problem to a designated authority, said authority buries the report, the offenders continue to offend (maybe with the advantage of being reassigned to virgin territory), and the hierarchy responds to queries with What? No, we don’t have a sexual abuse problem. My files are empty of cases!. We’ve seen it in the Catholic church, and also in smaller entities like the James Randi Educational Foundation.
Maybe the problem isn’t religion. Maybe the real root of the problem is patriarchal social structures. We should start dismantling every organization that has a mob of men at the top, where processing reports of abuse is handled by a chain of men. That seems like a reasonable starting point to fixing an issue.
Alternative explanation: maybe Franklin Graham is right and the real problem is that McDonald’s now bakes their apple pies, rather than frying them.
After all, God speaks directly to the Graham family.
1. ajbjasus says
That’s no pie, more like an appley version of a sausage roll.
Good to see Graham and his mate taking the first opportunity to enjoy some British food and culture.
2. says
Since this morning I posted this comment that must be rang out throughout the internet and social media:
Anyone who sides with the abuser rather than the victim (whether male or female) is just as guilty as the abuser himself (or herself).
In this case it doesn’t matter whether they like their apple pies baked or fried, everyone siding with these abusive pigs in all church denominations and ministries is as guilty as the abusers themselves.
3. submoron says
Why didn’t someone get an order banning this piece of of ordure from the U.K.? If he needs real British cuisine send him to Glasgow for dep fried Mars Bars; that should pack him off to heaven in short order!
4. whheydt says
The patriarchy may or may not poison everything, but Franklin Graham is poisonous all on his own.
5. robro says
Not that it matters a whole apple pie, but Franklin Graham is not formally affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention, nor was Billy Graham. In fact, they have their own religious organization, Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. That organization was founded in 1950 by Billy in Minneapolis, MN…bet you didn’t know that…and later moved to Charlotte, NC. However, the affinity with the SBC is strong, which I know from personal experience. When I was a teen I got involved with the neighborhood SBC church, mostly for social reasons, but I was strongly influenced by Billy Graham because of the affinity between his style and the preacher at the church. I grew out of all that a few years later.
6. says
I remember over the years listening to a local Christian Radio station that made numerous “excuses” for why people are staying away from churches, blaming it all on The Devil who’s keeping people away from churches by offering them excuses such as “the services are too boring” and “the pastor’s voice is too loud.” Never mind that this is all made up to deny and gloss over the real reasons why people are leaving and staying away from church such as what the WaPo have reported yesterday along with racial and gender hatred, embracing pseudoscience and creationism, zero respect for women and babies born and unborn, pastors worshiping that Stupid Idiot who once profane the WH a few years ago, gross displays of patriotism, fake repentance sideshows, robbing people of their hard earned cash, and shutting out people who question and challenge their authority.
All these things are the best “excuses” for leaving and staying away from church.
7. PaulBC says
McDonald’s no doubt has reasons of “enlightened self interest” for changing their pie preparation. It is amazing how much conservatives imagine for-profit corporations being part of a vast liberal conspiracy. They wouldn’t make the change if it didn’t improve their bottom line. All hail capitalism!
If you want yummy (deadly) fried food, nobody is stopping you from getting it. I’m sure you could do a lot better than McDonald’s ever did with a deep fryer at home. The issue is not individual pies but how much fast food contributes to obesity on a population level. McDonald’s does that whether they bake or fry their pies, but a modest reduction in fat is probably a good thing.
One thing I remember about the old pies is that they were a serious burn hazard straight out of the fryer and even had a warning to that effect. So I wonder if rather than trying to make the recipe healthier, McDonald’s actual motive was to avoid having to deal with burn injuries (like the famous coffee lawsuit, which involved 3rd degree burns and is no laughing matter). OK maybe not, if they only changed it in 2018. But I remember the baked pies from much earlier than that, and another source says 1992, which fits the coffee timing.
(Indeed, an effective distraction from allegations of sexual abuse.)
8. says
Yep, that’s why Jesus died for them: to wash away their guilt with the Blood of the Lamb so they’d still go to Heaven no matter what they’d done. /s
9. marner says
I give the Southern Baptists some credit for ordering this investigation, opening up their records and releasing the report. Damning with faint praise, but I don’t see any other religious institutions doing it.
10. wzrd1 says
After all, God speaks directly to the Graham family.
That was God? Wow, I thought it was the pool boy.
As for how the pies are prepared, corporations have focus groups to determine what is popular, not what some power hungry for-profit minister has to Tweet about.
Still, with bigger fish to fry, he fixates upon a tiny serving of apple “pie”. Decidedly odd, given that the cherry pies were far tastier. Although, I have appreciated my cholesterol count dropping below one million since they started baking the damned things.
11. robro says
Owosso Harpist @ #10 — I suspect one of the biggest reasons people are staying away from church is because Sunday is one free day a week to do chores around the house, shopping, and entertainment (think pro football in the fall/winter). When I was under 7 in the early 50s, my parents went to a Baptist church three times a week where they taught “Sunday School” and “Training Union”, and my dad was even a deacon (despite his regular beer). We moved to suburban track house when I was 7, put in a swimming pool* and all that stopped. In the South where I grew up, “blue laws” meant that a lot of places were closed on Sundays, except for churches of course.
12. mordred says
And here in Germany another Catholic bishop hits the news because he promoted a priest accused of sexual harassment (adult victims this time). The bishop doesn’t see a problem, the harasser has said he was really sorry.
13. says
Wow. Tweeting pictures of your food. Just like the kids do nowadays.
He’s obviously one of those hip preachers who can talk to the young.
14. robro says
marner @ #14 — “I give the Southern Baptists some credit for ordering this investigation…” Well, the membership perhaps. The leadership wasn’t doing it, so the membership voted at the convention last year to get an “independent” investigation to look into the mater. The key was the membership, and the other was having an independent investigation. If the leadership had investigated themselves, you know what they would find…nothing.
wzrd 1 @ #15 — Are thinking of Falwell, Junior? Of course, there may be some pool boys in the SBC scandal.
15. robro says
Heather Cox Richardson covers the SBC investigation report in her morning email, but what’s really interesting is this part (emphasis added):
The modern Southern Baptist Convention story begins in 1967, when Paige Patterson, a seminary student, and Paul Pressler, a Texas judge, met in New Orleans to discuss taking over the largest Protestant denomination in the U.S. and ridding it of liberals, purging those who believed in abortion rights, women’s rights, and gay rights. By 1979 their candidate was elected head of the organization, and in the 1980s, Southern Baptists, who then numbered about 15 million people, were active in politics and were staunch supporters of the Republican Party.
Between 2003 and 2018 the church lost a million members. Both Pressler and Patterson were accused of sexual misconduct and by 2018 had been forced out of leadership roles, and a new leader called for “a new culture and a new posture in the Southern Baptist Convention.” While he set up new systems for responding to abuse, other leaders continued to blame the victims. In one internal email, senior staff member D. August “Augie” Boto, who drove much of the church’s response to abuse allegations, wrote: “This whole thing should be seen for what it is. It is a satanic scheme to completely distract us from evangelism.”
It’s rotten to the core.
16. PaulBC says
When child sexual abuse by Catholic priests first came out as a big news story (and it’s been decades) there were a lot of amateur psychologists with their views on the role of celibacy in this crisis.
I admit to my bias, having been raised Catholic, but it always struck me as a load of offensive bullshit that this was specifically a Catholic problem or that the celibate priesthood had much to do with it*. Any time you put adults in charge of children, you run the risk of attracting abusers. You have to be vigilant. You have to teach the kids to be aware and provide them the vocabulary to report it. You need to treat allegations openly and you need to subject offenders to the full force of the law.
To be clear, the Catholic church acted as an enabler on a horrific scale and has much to answer for. They went out of their way to hide allegations and move offenders around, sometimes giving them new ground to exploit. But I think it had very little to do with the specifics of the priesthood.
The main issue is when organizations hide abuse to protect their continued existence and when their followers would rather stay in denial than confront difficult issues. Religion is one way to create this situation, but not the only way.
*These claims are predicated on the idea that the lack of a sexual outlet is such a hardship to weak men that it leads them to abuse children. (Which really was part of the nonsense spouted when the Catholic church abuse came out.) Bullshit. They were abusers to begin with. The “men lack personal control over their libido” theory is itself part of patriarchal culture.
17. robro says
PaulBC @ #21 — Clearly the “celibacy” angle was BS, just as the “boys will be boys” angle is BS. What is clear is that some people in positions of power and authority over other people can be abusive, emotionally and sexually. That’s true of women, too, not just men: ex. Kimberly Guilfoyle was under investigation at Fox for sexual harassment when she left abruptly to work for a Trump PAC. That’s the reason organizations need safe channels for people to report abusive behavior, and then deal with it. The Catholic church hid the abuse and protected the abusers. The SBC hid the abuse and protected the abusers. Fox hid the abuse and protected the abusers. I would not be surprised to learn that there’s a history of abuse hidden in Billy Graham Evangelistic Association.
18. says
Fruit pies are baked. What’s he’s talking about is a fried fruit-pie-replacement-device. Basically, it’s a Hot Pocket with gobs of sweetener and some fruit inside instead of mystery meat. Some people like that sort of stuff. These are the kinds of foods that are favored by people who like to go to the state fair and eat deep fried sticks of butter (yes, that’s a real thing). Frying everything in sight seems to be a Southern USA thing as far as I can tell. Consequently, I guess this would count as “food virtue signalling”.
But more importantly, apparently just like everything that comes out of a Graham’s mouth, what goes in is mostly sh*t.
19. dianne says
As an ex-McDonald’s employee, I have this to say about the fried pies:
20. says
Oh, and ignoring the sexual abuse is not a surprise at all. I expect nothing better than that from his ilk.
21. dianne says
I would have been far more surprised if there weren’t rampant sexual abuse or if it were taken seriously by the organization. I’ve yet to see a major institution react adequately to their sexual abuse problem and a church seems hopeless from the start.
22. robro says
jimf @ #24 — “Frying everything in sight seems to be a Southern USA thing”…As a Southerner I can confirm that frying is at the heart of traditional Southern cooking. Not everything, of course…we never fried grits although I suppose you could. Perhaps it’s because they had so much lard to use. Or, perhaps it’s because the weather is hot and humid, and roasting things in a oven adds to the misery while frying is relatively fast. I can’t speak to other food styles, although stir-frying is common with Chinese food available in the US.
And, just as the burgers are “mystery meat” I wonder if the apples are “mystery fruit.”
23. robro says
dianne @ #25 — “As an ex-McDonald’s employee, I have this to say about the fried pies: No.” Reminds me of a high school friend who worked at KFC (then called “Kentucky Fried Chicken”). He swore if you knew what it was, you wouldn’t touch it much less eat it. Ergo, I have rarely eaten from KFC. In fact, except when our son was a little boy, I have rarely eaten from any fast food places.
24. Matt G says
I’m glad Frankie is using his moral weight to address the pressing issues of our day.
25. submoron says
“Man is the pie that bakes and eats himself, and the recipe is separation.” “I refuse to believe men kill each other just to make their enemies rich.”
Duncan Thaw was too naïve,
26. unclefrogy says
well I had to look it up but there are a bunch of recipes for fried grits we ate them when I was a kid though we did not call it that. we called it fried mush and one favorite was scrapple.
the sexual abuse issue in churches and other organizations probably is more an expression of patriarchy then religion, most of the organized religions especially those that are hierarchical do seem to be rather patriarchal as well. there are a lot of problems that do seem to arise from failing to address our sexual nature in any way like honestly and openly. We are a very social animal for which sex plays a very large roll to ignore that, which we do results in many of the social problems we have abuses like this are just part of it. The root of the abortion issue are attitudes toward sex and sexual activity as much if not more then babies.

33. PaulBC says
garydargan@37 I have had fish and chips in three places (at least that I remember). One was Fisherman’s Wharf in Monterey and those were hands down the worst. It didn’t help that while waiting a long time for my order, I was staring at a cardboard box that said “flash frozen Alaskan pollock.” I have no gripe against pollock, but I shouldn’t have to go to Monterey for it. A bunch of other times, though it’s been nearly 20 years, I have had salmon fish and chips at the Seabright Brewery in Santa Cruz. Those are delicious, though admittedly too upscale to be authentic.
The other time was in Aberystwyth, Wales, even longer ago. I have to assume those were something like authentic fish and chips. They were better than what I got in Monterey, but not enough to go back. I used to eat at the Burger King there sometimes… not great but at least predictable. I tried other places too. I can’t remember liking any restaurants and ate a lot of packaged food during my stay including some frozen curry (reheated of course!). My favorite food item was crumpets from the grocery store. Trader Joe’s sells crumpets in the US and they seem like they should be right, but something isn’t quite the same.
34. blf says
PaulBC@40, “I have had salmon fish and chips at the Seabright Brewery in Santa Cruz.”
Hah! That was — and probably still is (Generalissimo Google™ indicates it still exists) — a good place for a brew or lunch after (sometimes during) our morning bicycle ride. I don’t recall the “salmon fish and chips” specifically — not surprising, I detest battered fried fish, even on the rare occasions it’s not soaked in rancid grease — but do generally recall having fine lunches with great beer outside on the terrace.
35. PaulBC says
blf@41 I lived just up the street from the Seabright Brewery at the time. It looks like they have new owners who have changed the name to “Seabright Social.” Who thought that one up? It doesn’t sound like a restaurant name to me. Or maybe I’m just old.
36. springa73 says
PaulBC @21
I wholeheartedly agree with your comment. I was also raised Roman Catholic, and while I am no longer practicing I was also skeptical about the idea that it was clerical celibacy or something else unique to Catholic clergy that caused the abuse of children. At the same time, I wondered if I was biased and too defensive of the Catholic Church due to my background. As I’ve heard of similar patterns of abuse in other organizations, I think that my suspicion that this is not a distinctly Catholic issue has been confirmed.
37. silvrhalide says
Why confine your attention to the heavily-male dominated religious organizations? Start with the big problem… the military. Religions come and religions go but armies are forever. In the US, harassed and assaulted people are required to report through the chain of command–usually male–and often the person that they are required to report to is their abuser. You can get dishonorably discharged for breaking the chain of command to report an abuser. Because breaking the chain of command is clearly a worse crime than sexual harassment, assault, rape and homicide. Priorities!
And just in time for the clime of the times… this:
Honestly, don’t stop at printing just one.
Mostly because of this:
Is it still adultery if there is only one ADULT involved and the other person is legally a CHILD?
Kind of like how the media portrayed Roman Polanski’s victim as “young woman”.
She was 13 at the time.
Notice how most of the congregation rushes to embrace and forgive the pastor? His victim, not so much. Kind of says it all.
Usually the SBC is pretty quick to shun and in some cases, excommunicate the female victims, all the while embracing and forgiving the predator. Because he said sowwy.
@20 So… they purged the liberals and kept the sex offenders.
Keep in mind that the SBC also kicked out member churches who accepted gays.
Those are some awesome life choices SBC!
Fake pastor eats fake food.
You are what you eat.

Blog link but the quoted studies are really interesting. If anyone has a link to the actual studies, I’d love to see the original data.
The implications though, are pretty profound.

I often fear that people in the modern world are too pacified and enslaved to their comfort to resist the evil powerful forces. One example is in personal technology. Most people I meet who know that the tech they are using is abusing them horribly still won't change any of it even when the beautiful alternatives are made available to them.

Normal People by Sally Rooney (Review by Varsha R. ’21)
Normal PeopleNormal People by Sally Rooney
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
TW for Normal People: Sexual assault and suicide
The first thing I noticed when I started Sally Rooney’s Normal People was that she does not use quotation marks in dialogue. What was initially jarring became understandable to me over the course of the novel. At the heart of Rooney’s writing is an innate desire to fully immerse the reader into the narrative; in real life, we don’t talk or perceive language with quotation marks, and her aversion towards such conventional punctuation made me feel as though I myself was a side character in the book, watching the story unfold with an outside, yet involved, perspective.
Rooney’s sentences are short, blunt, and zany. At first glance, her words leave almost no room for interpretation, but she also manages to craft an intense, emotionally draining and, at times, frustrating love story that leaves an impact. It’s perhaps for this reason that people either seem to adore Rooney’s writing or despise it. It takes a while to get used to, especially after reading the more standard works of basically any other established author.
Normal People takes a classic, time-and-time-again-told story of misunderstanding amid romance while weaving key threads of social class, mental turmoil, and simultaneous self-discovery and self-depression. It’s impossible not to sympathize with the lead characters, Marianne and Connell, as they make their individual footprints in their legacies while constantly surrounded by the other’s memory and presence.
They start a clandestine relationship with one another in their senior year of high school with the cliche trope of a popular soccer player and a quiet, misunderstood ugly duckling. What separates Normal People from any other coming-of-age romantic comedy is an unmistakable backdrop of social inequality, emotional uncertainty, and poignant thoughts of philosophy and self-questioning, which are furthered by a strong use of the third person.
Rooney has an irksome talent to keep the magnetically attached Marianne and Connell in her books apart at the most inopportune moments, a trope that gets exasperating after the first couple times. But as she puts it, “All these year they’ve been like two little plants sharing the same plot of soil, growing around one another, contorting to make room, taking certain unlikely positions.”
And of course, a key hallmark of Rooney’s books is a disappointing ending that almost came off as a final “screw you” to the reader after having been swept up in Marianne and Connell’s intertwining tale for so long. But it was impossible for me to stay annoyed for long after having reflected on the profound impact that this book had on me, my perception of myself, and my understanding of how I’m perceived in the world around me. —Review by Varsha R. ’21
For those who enjoyed Normal People, Varsha also suggests Conversations with Friends by Sally Rooney and The Outline Trilogy: Outline, Transit and Kudos by Rachel Cusk.

Download Frozen State
Frozen State combines several genres. It has elements of survival, horror, RPG and stealth. The hero needs to eat, sleep, and keep warm. During the exploration of locations and looting it is necessary to move from one source of heat to another in order not to freeze to death. You can die in many other ways. For example, by being poisoned by food or getting wounded. There are crafting and upgrading things. You can cook food, make trunks, sew clothes, build objects, including houses. Pumping here is built on the use of pills, which still have to be found.
There are 3 playable characters in Frozen State: Stas, Maria, Ingvar. In addition to appearance, they differ from each other in characteristics. For example, the girl physicist is expected to be weaker than the military officer. However, she makes up for it with increased stealth. choosing a certain character can make it harder or easier to get through. The modes themselves here are two - normal and hard. The latter can please hardcore gamers permanent death of their protégé with the subsequent need to start all over again, as well as a smaller number of items from the start.
The story is about the near future. An alien contagion has appeared in the world, turning people into monsters, referred to here as hybrids. In an attempt to escape, mankind triggered a new ice age. Ingvar, Stas and Masha need to repair the car (by the way, it can be driven) and get out of the closed city called Arc-40. Additional quests and all sorts of mysteries are present.
The open world is divided into 65 locations, which are randomly generated. On them you can meet friendly NPcs or enemies in the form of bandits and monsters (Piercer, Gaunt, The Widow, The Mother, Jackal, Step-Daughter, Spine). At the same time, humans and creatures willingly fight amongst themselves. You can sneak past them instead of engaging in a duel with them. Of the weapons, there are melee weapons like axes, rifles, pistols, plasma cannons, etc. д.

How do I finalize my college list?
Nothing beats college stress like narrowing down your list! After starting with a rough list of around 20 schools, the next step is to create a balanced final list, which will ensure that you’re ecstatic in the spring!
First, it's helpful to identify one or two sure-fire safety schools where you are assured automatic admission based on your stats. You'll want to choose schools that you genuinely like and that are affordable for your family. (To gauge affordability, you can check a college's average Net Price on the government website College Navigator, or for a more personalized estimate, run the Net Price Calculator on the school's website.)
Next, it's time to identify foundational or likely schools. We recommend that students have four likely schools on their final list. These are the schools where you have a pretty good shot—like around an 80%+ chance of getting in based on your academic profile. How do you determine your odds? Your school counselor or our college search algorithm can help, but you can also get a rough idea by looking at the college’s average GPA and 75th percentile range for SAT/ACT scores. If you’re well above the school’s 75th percentile for scores and your GPA is above average as well, the odds are in your favor as long as the school's overall acceptance rate is over 30% and it's also a good financial fit (many colleges are "need aware" and consider an applicant's ability to pay when making an admissions decision). For a list of schools that don't consider finances when making admissions decisions, check out this awesome Wikipedia page.
Next, we want to select four match or target schools (odds of 50–80%). As a rule of thumb, if your GPA is above a school's average and your test scores are approaching their 75th percentile range, you can likely consider the school a target/match (which means your statistical odds are a bit better than 50/50). A school's overall acceptance rate does need to be above 30% to consider it a true match.
Then there are reaches, which where your personal odds are about 20–40%. For a school to qualify as a reach, your test scores need to be right around or just below the school's 50th percentile range. We recommend that students apply to two reach schools. Any school with an overall acceptance rate below 25% is a reach for everyone. Finally, students usually like to add at least one or two wild cards or far reaches, where your personal odds of admission are around 10–20%. For most students, if test scores are hovering right above the school’s 25th percentile cut-off, the school counts as a reach.
One tip—students typically get better aid when their scores are higher than a college’s average academic profile. So generous schools make the best reaches and wild cards. To determine which schools offer the best financial aid, you can search on the government website College Navigator. Expand the “Net Price” tab to determine the average cost for your family's income range.

tomoldbury 5 points6 points 1 year ago
My argument is that the government of the USA and other countries spent trillions on razing Afghanistan to the ground which cost thousands more lives of soldiers and civilians. This was triggered by 9/11 where 3,000 people were killed by Al Qaeda. Despite the trillions spent on the war it has essentially left the country back in the hands of the Taliban ... well worth it right?
And yet you have 600k dead in the USA from a preventable virus and people will not get a vaccine, wear a mask or isolate if sick. The terrorists are bad, but Covid has killed more and the sacrifices required for a virus are really quite minimal in comparison to fighting a war
Can’t be fucked arguing any more, agree or not but the American psyche is just screwed on its priorities so bad
PS resorting to petty insults shows a persons character far better than anything else! You’re really convincing me.

What I remember
Here are my 9-11 memories.
Although I lived in Manhattan, I was in Los Angeles. I was doing CBS This Morning and that day was to be the first Latin Grammys. I was there to cover that. That morning I broadcast out of Television City. Whenever I went anywhere we always broadcast on the shows' time-7 to 9 a.m. Eastern. So of course we had to be up and at 'em to be on the air at 4-6 L.A. time.
That morning was pretty uneventful.
On my end, in addition to doing the weather, I interviewed an artist from Columbia named Juanes. He was up for multiple Grammys that evening and not only did he agree to the interview he was kind enough to perform. When he was done and they cut back to New York I asked him to autograph his CD. He did and I still have it.
After the show ended we went across the street to Katz' Deli to get a bagel with a schmear before going back to bed.
Here's where it all began.
Our waiter as he was taking our order casually said, "You're from New York, right?" I nodded yes and he continued, "A plane hit one of the World Trade Center towers." My first response was like so many,"A Piper Cub?" "No, a jet airliner. And another airliner just hit the other tower." What?
We (I say we because it was me and my dear friend Barbara Dally makeup person extraordinaire) hustled back to the studio to watch on the monitors and the first words I heard were from Bryant Gumbel. He said, "Oh my, The Pentagon is under attack." That definitely got my attention.
Like most of America we were transfixed in front of the television all day. Again, memories.
I remember they had a video that somebody had shot from a balcony in Newark on their cell phone. It showed the second plane hitting a tower and you could hear the voices in the background reacting in horror. Get this, they freely used curse words, which you could hear, and still it was shown over and over again. Now we are used to hearing and reading those words but back then that was definitely something I had never heard on television before.
I was worried about my wife and daughter but because the cell phone antennas were on top of the World Trade Center it all went dark. You couldn't get through.
That day was full of images. Holes, big holes, in each tower where the planes had hit. People being shown jumping out of windows to their deaths which made me wonder what was so horrible behind them to make them choose that alternative. People covered in soot staggering away down streets. Firemen and first responders heading towards the flames. We're used to 24/7 news channels now but were not used to news all the time then.
By the end of the day both towers had collapsed.
And you could have wrung me, and America, dry.
A day I will never forget.

Date and Origin of Colombus Day
Columbus Day Parade, NYC 2010
Columbus Day Parade, NYC 2010
(MarineCorps NewYork / CC-by)
Colombus Day Dates in 2022, 2023 and 2024
Colombus Day is celebrated at the following dates:
• Monday, October 10, 2022
• Monday, October 9, 2023
• Monday, October 14, 2024
Columbus day is celebrated on the second Monday of October.
Columbus day is observed as a federal holiday, though only 23 states give their workers a paid day off2. It celebrates Columbus's voyage and subsequent discovery the new world in 14923, despite strong evidence of previous Norse and claims of other pre-Columbian voyages.
Columbus day was first celebrated as a state holiday in Colorado in 1906 though celebrations of Columbus's voyage have been held since colonial times5. It became a federal holiday in 19375. In 1892, President Benjamin Harrison called for a celebration of the 300th anniversary of Columbus's voyage where the emphasis was placed on ideals of patriotism56. In the Italian-American community, Columbus day is considered a celebration of Italian heritage7.
Celebrations vary widely across the country. Some places hold giant parades celebrating Christopher Columbus's journey, such as in San Francisco, CA, which hosts the oldest continuously running Columbus Day parade, established in 1868 by Nicola Larco8. New York city boasts the largest Columbus Day parade with 35,000 marchers, 100 groups and nearly one million spectators1.
In observance of Columbus day, most school districts have the day off as well as most state government offices, many businesses, banks, the bond market, the U.S. postal service and other federal agencies9.
Columbus day has been steeped in controversy since at least as early as the 19th century due to associations with immigrants and the Knights of Columbus, as well as worries that it was a holiday used to widen Catholic influence10.
Starting in the mid 20th century, however, the focus has shifted towards critiques about the historical accuracy of Columbus being the first European to discover the New world and criticisms of Christopher Columbus's treatment of indigenous populations. One often cited example that illustrates the severity of Columbus's treatment of native Americans was his enslavement of 1500 Arawak men, women and children11. He brought 500 back on his ship, but because at least 200 died, he was forced to stop in Haiti, where he forced natives to bring him a certain quota of gold11. If the quota was not met, they would have their hands cut off and bled to death11.
These criticisms have led to some cities renaming Columbus day as Indigenous people's day, a movement started in 1992 with Berkeley, California and followed by Sebastopol and Santa Cruz, California; Dane County, Wisconsin; Minneapolis-Saint Paul, Minnesota; and Seattle, Washington12.

Cognitive impairment is normally common in individuals with schizophrenia, as well as people that have relatively conserved function perform worse than healthful volunteers (HVs) in attentional tasks. cingulate cortex; and ventrolateral prefrontal cortex. The ultimate MEG evaluation included 18 HVs and 14 schizophrenia sufferers. While all individuals could actually maintain interest, HVs slightly responded, but nonsignificantly, a lot more than schizophrenia sufferers accurately. HVs, however, not schizophrenia sufferers, exhibited better cortical replies to went to visual adjustments. Bayesian model evaluation revealed a DCM with attention dependent changes in both top-down and bottom-up contacts best explained reactions by individuals with schizophrenia, while in HVs the best model required only bottom-up changes. Quantitative assessment of connectivity estimates revealed a significant group difference in changes in the right IPS-TPJ connection: schizophrenia individuals showed relative reductions in connectivity during attended stimulus changes. Crucially, this reduction predicted lower intelligence. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that practical dysconnections ZSTK474 in the FPN contribute to cognitive impairment in schizophrenia. Mouse Monoclonal to Human IgG electromagnetic replies but also pieces of experimental adjustments in coupling. This enables one to make use of BMC to measure the proof for context reliant changes in connection C such as for example adjustments induced by the type from the stimulus (went to versus unattended). This technique includes an exceedance possibility to look for the greatest appropriate model or the chance that one model suit the data much better than the various other versions. The network structures employed for the DCM comprised resources which were previously defined as getting activated within an fMRI research using the same job (29). These resources were in keeping with the most sturdy replies in the (went to transformation minus unattended transformation) evaluation of sensor-space replies [see Amount 2 and Desk 2 of Ref. (29)]. They included: higher visible region (HVA) ([48, ?66, ?[ and 4]?48, ?66 ?16]); temporoparietal junction (TPJ) ([64, ?38, [ and 6]?64, ?38, 6]); intraparietal sulcus (IPS) ([26, ?62, 42] and [?24, ?66, 50]); ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (vlPFC) ([36, 35, ?4] and [?44, 34, 6]); and dorsal anterior cingulate (dACC) ([14, 26, 44] and [?6, 14, 48]). All versions had a set model structures within each hemisphere (both forwards and backward cable connections) the following: between HVA and TPJ; between IPS and TPJ; between dACC and IPS; and between IPS and vlPFC. Furthermore, all versions acquired set lateral cable connections between dACC and vlPFC, and inter-hemispherically between all matching locations (i.e., between still left and best HVA, ZSTK474 TPJ, IPS, vlPFC, and dACC) (find Figure ?Amount2).2). Using the above mentioned co-ordinates as spatial area priors, three DCMs had been constructed, varying with regards to modulatory results C the modulation due to a stimulus transformation on the went to aspect or axis C on forwards cable connections (reflecting bottom-up effects), on backward contacts (reflecting top-down effects), or.

I am GenXWoman, hear me ROAR!
Celebrating the Bridge Generation
Do you ever wake up in the morning feeling excessively tired?
Like you’re literally trying to rip yourself out of bed? Maybe you hit the snooze button so many times you’ve lost count? Although you slept all through the night, you feel absolutely depleted. Or maybe it took you ages to fall asleep the night before because your mind was running in circles. Whatever the reason for your restless night, you just know that you feel tired and flat worn out. Your body feels sore, your mind is foggy, your memory is shot, and your skin is dry. Also, you can’t remember the last time you enjoyed or even wanted to have sex! That’s right, I mentioned sex! Because whether you care or not right now, at some point in time sex was important and enjoyable to you. All these symptoms and more may be related to a hormone imbalance.
Well, let me tell you right now sister: you are NOT alone! Nearly every woman in her late thirties or forties feels exactly this way. And if they don’t, they are either a unicorn or have figured out the secret that we’d love to know. The reality is that this is yet another time in our lives where our hormones change. They changed when we were preteens, pregnant, and again as our bodies prepare for this hormonal phase of our lives. As women, our hormone imbalance is not something to take lightly. Our hormones are one of the key components that keep our bodies functioning and balanced. The reason being that as we enter the ages of late thirties to forties, our hormone levels change.
Hormonal imbalances in women result in fatigue, so many women will head to their primary care doctor. Majority of the time, these physicians will prescribe some type of sleeping aid which will only become a temporary Band-Aid. I couldn’t take feeling completely drained any longer, so I made an appointment with my physician. After reviewing all my symptoms with her, I waited for her to order many tests that would give me an actual diagnosis and treatment plan. Instead, all I got were the words “That’s life. You’re getting older and this is how it is.”
I’m sure some of you have heard a similar response from your doctor and that is depressing. Don’t get me wrong. I love doctors! Also, it is very important to follow up with your physician or gynecologist to rule out any other underlying health issues. However, if you are frustrated with taking sleep aids or drinking energy drinks to get you by, here are some alternatives to help you balance your hormones naturally.
1. Sleep
I know! People are always telling you that you should get plenty of sleep. This is one of the basic life needs for everyone in order to function. It’s a tremendous benefit for hormone imbalance or any other health issue. According to the American Sleep Association, adults ages 25-90 years old are recommended to sleep 7-9 hours per night. Women with high demanding jobs and home life usually sleep around 5-6 hours. By losing those extra hours, our brains are not given sufficient time to form new pathways that help us to remember, focus, and learn.
If you have trouble falling asleep, try doing something that relaxes you a couple of hours before you go to bed. Try reading, stretching, a hot bath, or meditation. Do anything that will help your thoughts and mind to calm down, reduce your stress, and balance your mind. If you are still having trouble falling or staying asleep, consider seeing a sleep professional to help you figure out what techniques will help you.
2. Exercise
Again, I know. I am not the first to jump up and get excited about working out. However, low to moderate exercise at least three times a week will help circulate blood flow to the brain and decrease joint stiffness and soreness. Just like sleep, exercise has so many wonderful benefits, not just on a woman’s hormonal imbalance. Try just 30 minutes of yoga, stretching, Tai Chi, walking, or cycling a few times a week and see if you are feeling a little more energetic. Not only will this help with brain fog, muscle soreness, memory, and functioning, but it will also improve your desire to become more intimate with your partner! If you do not feel like you have the time to exercise or don’t know where to start, consider seeing a personal trainer or fitness coach to help you find the right fit for you.
3. Nutrition
Yes, that plate of pasta from your favorite Italian restaurant looks amazing! Especially after a long day of work when you didn’t even get a lunch break. Occasionally that is fine, but your body will just feel tired and bloated. You may regret every decision you’ve ever made in life after eating it. Try looking at food as fuel for your body, not as a reward for working hard. Try thinking of your body and food as your car and fuel. If we fuel our cars with poor quality gas, they will not function well. So why would we ingest bad fuel and cause our bodies to not function properly?
Try decreasing the carbs and late-night snacking and increase your intake of fruit, vegetables, and protein. Greens are an excellent source of all the vitamins we need that help our brain and memory. If you are having difficulty finding the right dietary choices for you, try hiring a dietary coach.
4. Vitamins, Supplements, and Water!
There are many vitamins and supplements on the market that can help you balance your hormones naturally. One that is not widely known is diindolylmethane (DIM). DIM is a supplement used to help break down estrogen in the liver and decrease the breakdown of testosterone. Our bodies start to slow down on the production of testosterone as we age which decreases our energy and strength.
Vitamin C is not just used during flu season. It is an excellent supplement that not only helps build up your immune system, but it also helps decrease inflammation, blood pressure, mental fog, and memory loss. Vitamin C can also decrease cortisol levels which are caused by stress.
Speaking of stress, some other excellent vitamins that are beneficial in reducing the harmful effects of stress include Vitamin B12, Magnesium, and Zinc. As we age, our bodies begin to experience bone loss. It is also important to supplement Calcium and Vitamin D in order to help decrease bone loss and prevent osteoporosis.
Finally, probiotics are amazing supplements that improve your gut health by delivering “good” bacteria to your digestive system. They are greatly beneficial in increasing your metabolism, decreasing inflammation, and removing harmful bacteria and toxins from your body.
5. Hormone Replacement
Hormone replacement is somewhat controversial among healthcare providers and women. There are many benefits to this treatment for women’s hormonal imbalance. However, it does not work the same for everyone and there are different types of treatments. Some range from pills, cream applications, or the current popular hormone pellet insertion or hormone replacement therapy (HRT). A physician must closely monitor you and perform routine lab work to monitor your hormone levels. Some physicians and women swear by it while others are not big fans of the idea. Either way, it is important for you to at least keep monitoring your hormone levels so that you are aware of what hormone imbalances you may have.
Final Thoughts
As a registered nurse, working in the healthcare field for many years, I was a true believer of modern medicine. However, as a woman with hormonal imbalance, myself, and seeing the side effects of many medications, I started researching how to balance my hormones naturally. Making lifestyle modifications in my routine such as performing moderate exercise, increasing sleep hours, and decreasing stress have worked well for me. I completely removed alcohol from my diet and started taking more supplements to balance my hormones. I also started a natural hormone replacement therapy which is closely monitored by my new healthcare provider. It has been very successful and I am more energetic and focused than I have been in ten years!
If you are a woman suffering from hormonal imbalance and its symptoms, check with your physician and at least request to have your hormone levels checked. Try making some small lifestyle changes or modifications in order to improve your overall health and help you balance your hormones naturally. There are many options and solutions to help with hormone imbalance. Do NOT get discouraged and feel as if you will be like this forever. Just remember that you are not the only woman feeling this way. You are not alone!
